Being Young – A Poem

Shouting

Wearing shorts

Knee scabs

The joy of worms

Always running

Never walking

First time tastes

Ice cream soda

Christmas morning!

Pets like pals

Alien girls

Forever friends

First time met

Eating for fun

Enemy vegetables

Stories in books

Comics

Television

Games at school

Laughing

Brotherly love

Mother as god

Father just gone

Crying

Growing up

Quieting
