Age ProgressionA Poem by ~Anita Sandlin~Birth to five years,
it's a time of laughter and tears. Six to ten, it's a time to wonder how we began. Eleven to fifteen, it's the time to become a teen. Sixteen to twenty, it's a time to learn how to be an adult, and to learn the many ways of life. Twenty-one to twenty-six, it's the time to start your own family, and learn all the little tricks. Twenty-seven to thirty-two, it's the time to teach your children how to give and receive respect. Thirty-three to thirty-eight, it's the time to start preparing for proms and graduations, oh, just think of all the celebrations. Thirty-nine to forty-four, it's the time to start preparing for the grandchildren, before you know it, you will go from one to four. Forty-five to fifty, that's the time to sit back and say "ain't that nifty." © 2011 ~Anita Sandlin~ |
