Anacreon's Apology Poem by Gamaliel Bradford
Anacreon's Apology
Rating: ★4.3
An eye where love with laughter twinkles,
And songs on kisses still insistent,
Blended with graying hair and wrinkles,
To you, my child, seem inconsistent?
In fact, you think such conduct shocking?
The old should mind their souls and purses?
Ah, youthful blood, refrain from mocking
Till you can only kiss in verses.

Perfectly said, Mr. Bradford. Your argument is succinct and kind and on the right side of love.
