Treasure Them
The most oldest are the ones with the youngest time to be treasured. Even though the most Eldest in the family is slowly drifting apart and that their abilities are turning short, it does not mean they should be forgotten or mistreated because of that.

The poem shows the importance of how you should cherish your grandpa or grandma, because when he or she is gone, it will make a huge impact on you like the speaker, who lost her
