Challenge 15: Generation gap


87. Do you believe there's a generation gap? Describe the differences between your generation and others. (Denison University)


Once was a time I sat on granny’s lap,
Thinking of taking a sweet little nap,
Until she woke me up to drink a sap,
That tasted almost like a crap;
She saw my face and started to yap
That that was the best in her generation.

Some time later was the period of rap;
My grandpa said that it should never recap
For those noisy rappers would never shut their trap;
I told him my ears listening to them would flap,
And wondered why his hands went up to his ears to wrap;
He gently said that there was no such music in his generation.

Few years later when my mom had her knee with a bad chap,
I took her to a hospital to get a kneecap;
The doctor was young and fashionable whitecap
But my mom thought he only looked like a snowcap;
I comforted her saying that the doctor would heal her knee ASAP,
She did say nothing but only sit and snap;
When we were back home I found her wiretap
About the meaning of ASAP;
As she shyly told me that she certainly did not know what ASAP meant in her generation,
I realized that indeed there surely  is a generation gap
