Poetic-Verses
'' Don't Wish It Away ''
Ageing when young,
Makes you feel bolder,
As you take the next rung,
You wish you were older.
When asked your age,
You'll say seven and a half,
That helps you gauge,
What's next on your graph.
Primary schools gone,
Your secondary beckons,
In this your new dawn,
A dawdle one reckons.
With the rules you comply,
Get a good education,
In the blink of an eye,
You become a sensation.
Soon you're working away,
Earning a living,
Then each passing day,
Becomes less forgiving.
You can't do what you please,
The body is sore,
Getting up off your knees,
Becomes such a chore.
Then it has to be said,
You can no longer see,
You watch where you tread,
Glasses are the key.
For days now passed,
You develop a hunger,
You're no longer fast,
You wish you were younger.
Life is too short,
Enjoy every day,
Time, we can't thwart,
' Don't Wish It Away '
