Short Young Adults Poems

In this day and time
Some of the older people wants
To be young again
Dressing, and acting like
Teens and young adults
Then there's the young people
Who's trying to be older
Dressing and acting like
Older adults, even putting
Up their age, be who you are
Don't fall into entrapments!...

Cut off the
Phone
Turned the
Music
Way up 
High...
BANG!
BANG!
Someone's dead
BUT I DON'T
Want to
Die!
Put the
Phone back
On the hook
Turn the music
Way down low
Ray Charles singing
About
Being
Green!
And I GOT-A-GO
Onnnnnnnnn!
1975
(I had two friends with sucidal children...young adults...who really did kill themselves)

Children begin to read and write
learn to communicate with others
wonders and worlds revealed. 

Adolescents hone those skills 
insatiable hunger grows within
inhibited imagination relaxed. 

Young adults open to thought
create new-found concepts to marvel
limitless knowledge spread before.

Aged and wise now understood
in a life magnificent and full 
our learning never ends....

Witches come alive flying through the sky
Pumpkins sitting on doorsteps all lit up
Spiders creeping and crawling all around you
On Hallows Eve

Ghosts are watching you 
Goblins are stalking you 
Black cats are roaming the streets 
On Hallows Eve

Children all dressed up collecting candy 
Teenagers and young adults partying like theres no tomorrow 
On Halloweens Eve 

On Halloweens Eve 
Once a year 
Is when all craziness happens...

If ignorance were bliss
And I had one wish.
I would unlearn all that I know.
I would play as a toddler
with my granddaughter,
and have fun as we go.
I would do as she does.
Growing like a weed,
Learn as she learns.
And before I’m through,
I will enjoy complaining
like teenagers do.
Going through the aches and pains
of adolescence.
Becoming aware of the world.
Looking forward to
and wasting opportunities
Like young adults do.
But only…  
if I had one wish....

I am all woman
But yet am strong
because I've had to be, 
little did I know 
that fate would deal me a blow 
and leave me alone 
to raise my family. 

Don't be mistaken, 
I welcomed my fate, 
so that I could raise my family
with love and no hate.

My duties are now over,
I feel I did succeed, 
I provided love and care 
and all they would ever need. 

My children, now young adults 
are intelligent and polite, 
as difficult as those years were, 
I think I did it right!...
