Step-by-step explanation:

The poem "You Are Old, Father William" Lewis Carroll throws some light on the theme of the generation gap. The poem comprises of the exchange of sarcastic dialogues between a father and a son. They both represent a particular generation. The young man who is the son of Father William criticizes him and makes fun of his behavior and types of activities he does. He makes funny remarks about him and his old age.
