Replying to a comment on:

Father’s Day (Free verse) by Dovina

Let every man who ever had a father Consider: I knew a man who, when old, grew bitter when young, he forgave As he aged, he complained when young, content The older he got, the more he criticized when young, he encouraged When old he revealed his core

I think it's a tendency for men and women to get cynical and bitter as they age. I think it's an avoidable trap, and avoiding it leads to a happier old age.
