Notes About The Poem

GROWING UP

As growing toward arrived full stature 
Of mine physical or mental maturity cured
 Childhood toward adulthood fully such Grown
 ---Growing up
 ~
In developing ageing maturing
So evolving in planted seed
	While blooming, flowering, ripening
	Getting on, getting along, progressing growing up breed 

	Burgeoning, blossoming, flourishing
	Cross bred a story, placed in history
	Energy, then a seed planted growing such
	I am growing up
~	
	Spirit bourgeoning unfolding advancing
	I am energy, spirit body, toddler, boy teen now man
	Graying, greying grown yet still I am
	---Growing up
