I Look Back Fondly at my Adolescence

I loved adolescence, it is the time we get witty and bright. If we are lucky, and I was, it is the time we feel pretty And come into our “own right”. I remember thinking how much fun life was, in the days I felt cute. People were nice to me, at this time, I had never met an ogre, the big bad wolf, or any other brute. Life was easy, carefree, and I had a thin young lovely waist. I was not rushed to do anything, but still, I ran around with haste. As if I might run out of time, and I wanted to enjoy every single second. Adolescence is a time I look back on fondly, thinking every moon was crescent.
