About This Poem

Me Myself I

                        A girl was born a beautiful summer day
                 She had beautiful blue eyes and light curly hair
                            The girl ...... it was me myself I
                      My mother has told me that I was a kind
                                     and happy baby
                    The baby became a chubby girl who liked to
                          play with soft teddy bears and dolls
                           Chaunted and singing all day long,
                                 yes I was a happy little girl


                             When I was seven years old and the
                                 commitments hour had come
                       First day at school, dressed in a dress with
                                  flowers and ribbon in my hair
                        I wanted out of the classroom, I wanted to be
                      free to play, sing and dance.... be free like a bird
                          Plus, minus and A-B-C... yes it all could wait
                      School years passed by and I learned: plus, minus,
                                   A-B-C and more than that


                   "Almost adult" - a teenager, yes waithing for the time
             Girls with menstruation, and acne wich we covered with powder
                         Boys with pimples, wich reflects like flashlights
                           Girls who "giggled" of everything and nothing
                          Boys who speakes with deep voices that bursts
                                     Interested in the opposite sex
                                       It`s was an exciting time ... 
                                     Distance love, blushing cheeks
                                              Will you be mine?
                             Go hand in hand and perhaps a gentle kiss
                               Heartbreaks....well who has been there?


                But as in a fairytales the princess meets her prince, they are
                   in love....married... and have many other commitments,
                                         work, home and children
                               Fairytales have always a happy ending
                                          What about the reality?

    What a beautiful poem, Anne-Lise. What description of yourself! Reality can be charming if that is what you believe. I totally believe it. Love you, my friend. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful, incredible New Year:) Have lots of fun!!

    Reality is what you make it. Sometimes it's tough. I guess thats why we dream. Still gotta enjoy every moment.

    Your words describe the years of many, through your living. Blue eyed blondes, like brown with emerald eyes. They are duty abound, to live their real lives, and in this they do, to the best that they can. For this is what's called life, it's not served in a can. <*> Reality is real, it's our building blocks stated, it's our paths that we have taken, sometimes so underrated. Fairy-tales are such, indeed they exist, to live a good life, we have to persist. Fine poetry Anne Lise :) xx
