For to linger here in such a place perhaps is not that wise <br />What to many is good music to me seems only noise <br />A wiser thing is for me to leave a foolish thing for me to stay <br />When I can enjoy a cappucino in a far quieter cafe, <br />This place designed to suit the young not one time has left gray <br />The one young in the sixties has known a better day <br />Those young back in the sixties are now well past their prime <br />And rather settled in their ways and losing out to time, <br />And 'tis true what is said of the youth that youth must have it's fling <br />And if twenty first century teenagers like loud music they are doing their own thing <br />For such a youthful noisy place mine is too old a face <br />The little cafe down the street is much a quieter place <br />Where I can drink my coffee in an atmosphere I enjoy <br />Why linger in a noisy place with peace and quiet nearby.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/for-to-linger-here-in-such-a-place/
