Behind Closed Doors

Listen to poem:

Behind closed doors It’s plain to see We have our quirks The way we carry on Acting half our age We’re mostly looney tunes Yet no one would ever guess We love to clown around Laugh and snort out loud We like to be ridiculous We’re often very frivolous Silly loopy and giddy For sure they’d lock us up If they ever caught up with us AP: 3rd place 2021, Honorable Mention 2021, Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on May 28, 2019 for contest TRUTH sponsored by ANTHONY SLAUSIN and December 11, 2018 for contest MAKE ME ACTUALLY LOL sponsored by NINA PARMENTER

I am me behind close doors. Someone once wrote, God permits us to grow older in order that we may learn, and by learning, we grow younger in spirit.
