Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

When I Am Young, I Shall Stick Out My Tongue Once Again

When I am young
     I shall stick out my tongue
   Stick out my tongue once again ...

   When I am ten
     I shall teach Zen
   Now and then  

   When I am eight
     I shall emigrate
   At eight, just you wait

   When I am six
     I'll use chopsticks
   Just for kicks

   When I am four
     I'll own a Labrador      
   Who eats off our floor

   When I am two
     I'll master kung fu
   When I am but two

   When I am young
     I shall stick out my tongue
   Stick out my tongue once again ...
