Notes About The Poem

Memories from  youth. No excuses but one. 

The End of Childhood

Who stayed awake
Til day break
Who ROCKED STEADY?
Who had fun?
Who grew up?
Who stayed young?
New Years Eve after Eve
What was fun was fun
Talk about it
Some died young
Without their cape or cake.
Super heroes
What's done is done
Birthday PARTIES AT THE GRAVES.
FLY AWAY TO A SKY AWAY HOME
Young Doves, lots of love.


 No excuses, but one.....childhood.
