You've been here long before me

Whispering and bellowing to folks thy euphony .

People have been united, countries have been swollen

By shadowing our souls in cheer and affliction.

You know us well, and you see us clear

In times of joy and in times cheer.

In cases of bliss, mellifluous you become

Vibrantly shine till our hearts blossom.

In moments of grief, somber are thee

Prudently warm us with with your gracious eulogy.

But lately I notice you are changed

To a novel form and to a freeform.

What I hear mostly are clamors and discords 

Revered by all in programs and billboards.

Disheartened some find thy words turning superficial 

When looking back at moments when you were gleeful.

You charmed us well, you nursed us fine

Yet it is we who put you in decline.

Though people see you turn all to shame

I see thy past with nothing but acclaim.
