Time to Grow

Time to Grow Up

Well, I guess it’s time

to get up off my proverbial haunches

roll up my sleeves

and decide who I am

 

Can’t wait

forever

for someone else

to come along

and remind me

who I was

before

or before that

or even yesterday

 

Now

time

to buck up

step out

step up

and make

something

of my life . . .

  1. Ah shoot! and here I was trying to Shun Responsibility so that I could be Forever Young :).

    Youth is a state of mind . . . once you get to a certain age, though I’m uncertain what age that is ;-) Thanks for the visit and greetings. I responded with another poem. Feel free to comment on it.
