Our maturity
where does it derive it's worth,
Into adulthood?
The heart of a child beats here
With eyes a man understands
rod never employed
children acting like children
softly spoken words
clear, gentle, admonishments
calm, compassionate adults
Grass skirts dance in fear
Furious whispers menace
Nature prunes nature
Growth begins anew
Disciplined to adulthood
Precisely nurtured
Youth
fledgling, callow
generation rising, aging, accepting
cars, jobs, regrets, pains
secluding, denying, resenting
tolerating, unaccepting
adulthood
Priceless
Indefinate worth
Smiles
Sensitive
Caring
Encouraging
Touch
Playing
Laughing
Innocence
Childhood
Challenges
Hardwork
Worry
Adulthood
Form:
childhood,
adulthood,
struggle to survive
success - failure seem fruitless
to face predetermined death leaving no trace.
There was a boy in my neighbourhood,
Nothing he seemed to understood.
He was rather dull.
He was much like an empty skull
But, brilliance caught up with adulthood.
Childhood
Immature humans
Learning about adulthood
Playful, frolicsome, lighthearted anticipation,
Young.

Poetic form: Cinquain
Our love is living on borrowed time
In fact, we are all living on borrowed time
Time gets shorter
Time's a transporter
Childhood to adulthood your life and mine
Evil,
should be attacked in its infancy,
otherwise,
difficult would be to confront when
it reaches adulthood!

From childhood, to adulthood, we watch them grow from a boy to a man. We love our sons like no one else can. As much as we hate to see them leave the nest,we leave it up to god to take care of the rest.
A baby through her infancy searching for her life’s path, the next stop childhood but this would be her last, never to reach adulthood or to even have a past, my innocent little sister stolen by the stars.
Child
Carefree, fearless
Learning, observing, mimicking
Baby, school, graduate, adult
Teaching, protecting, providing
Responsible, cautious
Parent

With every candle blown,
I grow older...
But with that so are my people...
With every candle blown,
I grief my people again and again.
Once which was just a toddler's happiness,
Is now an adult's grief.
Childhood
Playful , young
Shouting, whining, developing
Boys , girls , men , women
Working,teaching,remembering
Serious, wise
Adulthood
The stars look pretty from down here,
Lying on my side.
This chicken doesn't want to hold me,
I'm too heavy for playground rides.
I'm not a child anymore.
At least I try.
Especially
After Strawberry Daiquiris.
Written by Gail DeBole on April 10, 2015
The hidden Inner Child briefly escapes the
Boundaries of adulthood
And experiences the world's delights
Through the eyes and actions of the Outer Child.
Kumbaya my Lord
my favorite prayer
when I was a boy
always eased my soul
in times of troubles
young adulthood
my love of sports
kept me going
a fan of Yaz
left fielder
of Red Sox
many years
today
happy
smile
Being born
We survive infancy
Miracle
Being young
We survive childhood
Fortitude
Growing old
We cannot survive adulthood
Irony
And then we die
When we no longer believe
That what lies ahead
Is better
Than what is past
“My soul”
“Feel trapped in a box of walls,
And my wings are chopped off with a sharp blade, bleeding,
I’m still silent,
From childhood to adulthood all want to trap me and tame me,
They trained me to be always on your knees until death!”
Here comes —
slowly— the greyed fitness with heavy,
clasping hands, that tie up
limbs with the flayed string of life,
in which we build gingerly,
toddle for the last time,
and climb stairs more with our breaths
than with our senses.
A mother's love is here to stay
It will never fade away
Through the rights and all the wrong
Her heart will always be strong
Never letting her love go
No matter how much you grow
Into adulthood strong and tall
She'll remember you so small
Those birthdays
Beginings
Building blocks
Six to ten
Smooth sailing
Relaxed times
Turbulence
Those teen years
Adulthood?
My first Tricube poem. The length hinders but it can really open doors to thinking.
A sun fades
As childhood sailing away
And upon a shore
Adulthood left standing
And out staring
Across a bay of dissapears
Kept withdrawn is the wanting
Of reaching out and waving
But, turns instead to face responsibility
And all its coming years
