Just read this myself, and I think many of the us feel this way, especially when trying to reach the younger ones.
Forgive us
You, the young,
Novices in life,
For our nostalgia.

So thoughtfully
So poignantly
And empathize
After we've gone.

The conciseness makes its point. Computers and technology did it for me! hahaha
