My parents don't understand me, I try to understand my children, but then think I fail. LoL
ha i think there will be misunderstanding between generations forever...but this also opens up to a story as well...maybe it is just that i recently watched Hatfields & McCoys...
But it need not be! Paper and ink, even secondhand, should be treated as gold.
There is always a disconnect between old values and new ideas. There is so much wisdom in this short haiku, Tumblewords. Thank you for sharing.
Oh, this little haiku opens up worlds! Wonderful!
You are one deep thinking lady, as you words show.♥
yes - a perfect punchy little poem
True, some things never change.
Always a generation gap...
Universal, the generational thing! I watched the Hatfields and McCoys too, talk about misunderstandings, Brian is right!
Always will be misunderstood too. My teen tells me all the time "You wouldn't understand, you're too old." I guess it's something that gets passed down through generations too, along with progress. Great interpretation of the picture. :)
succinct and true. excellent.
if we all thought the same way- then new beginnings would never happen. Wonderful haiku.
A true Haiku indeed! Mind you, I'm more your pencil and eraser kinda gal! *blush*
Simple haiku with history and heartbreak.
Excellent!
