“And I think to myself what a wonderful world.” ~ Louis Armstrong
And I think to myself
what a wonderful world
Now that my dear self
is seen to transcend the divide
From the innocence
of a baby to a young lady
Where age is just a number
but more than that
A double digit
Can you imagine that?
Mum says it comes too fast
But I thought it was dragging its feet!
Achieved in all of its wisdom
Yes, I've now turned 10
Biologically there are changes
I am all prepared
I have to!
It's so inspiring
Have to keep on dancing
into my teens!
Next, a Driving Licence!

Ten is a wonderful age for a young lady. Looks like she had a happy birthday.

ReplyDeleteWhat a super poem. I remember too entering my teens and thinking, now I am grown. Now I enter my 60's and I think, at last, I can be a child again.
