Maturity And Growing Up

Published by Family Friend Poems May 2008 with permission of the Author.

When you are young, life leaves you no choice.
Do this, do that.
No room for a little voice
When all you want to do is play and just have fun
Ride your bike, roller skate, and be free to run.
With no concerns for the who's, what's, when's and why's.
Then you go from a girl to a woman before your own eyes.
Life gives you lessons to learn as you grow,
Room for mistakes and time to show what you know.
Just be patient because things will soon go your way.
Enjoy the young times and have a happy birthday!
