Growing Older

a poem by sissybug

 

Smiles, all smiles

at a young age.

brothers and sisters

playing games

 

older and older

we all will get

time flys by

when your just a kid.

 

passing us by

without a sound

passing us by

look where we stand now.

 

teenaged and michevious

thats what were told

not much fun

when you're growing old.

 

years and years

ripping you from the seems

it feels like just yesterday

is this just a dream?

 

in our adulthood

we reminsice

about all the times

when we were kids.

 

old and wrinkled

were drawing to a close

the life we have lived

has made us bold.

 

so dont regret

one thing you do

for life will fly by

and will end so soon.
