These days
All call me
a child
That’s how
I know ~
I’ve grown up
here i go,
all on my own.
stepping out.
all alone.
gonna do it.
don't try to stop me.
i'm all grown up.
so here i go.

Everyone has grown up
and so their level and status
I am still struggling to cope
with this world, waiting for the stratus
She's getting ready
Prom night finally is here
orchid pinned on dress
Nervous anticipation
Attempting to be grown up
Growing old is a process…
If you’re blessed…you’ll be around to see…
you have grown up to be
the person…you always wanted to be.
Under dappled light
It waits off a country road,
A short bike from home.
On it rested a boy's world.
Grown up now, my rock I seek.
Mommy, Mommy, candy cigarettes!
look how many I have got
Then there are some other brands
Can you tell me, What is pot?
Childhood wings kept
hanging behind closet doors
nestled in pockets
in woolen pea coats bright blue
like clear skies meant for flying.
I'm a farmer
Tired with cultivation,
Planted seed
Here and there
In the sky over,
Never I have known
What crop where
It got grown up.
A little girl inside me lives.
She cries, she’s scared and she grieves.
Although you’re all grown up
Don’t even think of telling her to shut up.
In another life, I have been a sea turtle.
Grown up without a mother.
Never been taught by anyone.
And yet?
In the end?
I have made my way in the ocean.
Sharing parents,
Incredible friends,
Blood related,
Love oriented,
If away from home,
Nostalgic for them,
Grown up together,
Soul mates for ever.
Check out the Gadzooks
on that one
the nasty boys say
I say go to your corner
and cry
like the children you are
Come back out
when you have grown up.
An innocent face
Started her journey,
Stealing things
Of very less penny.
Grown up
She had become
An expert ,
To steal very expensive
Heart.
The birth certificate is kept
By your mother
The I. D. Card is kept
By your husband
Because you're afraid
Of losing it
Then you're not really
Grown up yet.
a crisp cool wind blows
leaves into the swimming pool
fall has quietly arrived
no laughing children
splashing under the warm sun
they’ve grown up and flown away
Lion cubs grow up we warned the child.
He did not care, he had grown up mild.
He brought the kit home and grew him tall.
As you can see six years later, he is no way small.
This might be barbaric of me to say
But I don’t like those who have to have their way
Grown up bullies who yell “you’re fired and such”
Misogynist pigs who are simply out of touch
through years of turbulence
she kept the boat afloat
we all made it to the other side
grown up now that we look back
we understand love's sacrifices

She feels fake, a skilled adult impostor
constantly fostering a false decorum.
Her life stirs in seasons of autumn
but her grown-up has yet to blossom.
Listen to poem:
looking for wisdom
where it could be found
a vulnerability all too endearing
subtle yet barely beneath the surface
the abandoned child
all grown up
AP: Honorable Mention 2021
Touchy, moody beings,
Trying to be grown up.
Testing parents' limits,
Trapped in hormonal flux,
Turmoil at the ready,
Trust issues do abound.
Treat with love and patience.

He'd grown up a pest and a brat
Evolved into an oily bureaucrat
While bribes greased his palms
Folks back home begged for alms...
Stripped of his bureau ~
All that was left was a rat
Having grown up with Sarah Seraphin and, Tristen Temple
Toddlers at Saint Nicks preparatory praetorian school of fine arts
Precocious, their quasi's trice musketeers quid pro quo ? His prodigies.

Old Crank Who God Did Thank
Had grown up and I became an old crank;
Everyday must make sure that God thank;
Me did assist;
Cannot resist;
On Him, He knows that I will always bank.
