I am going to un-grow
Down, not up
I’m going to stop
puzzling over
What life is all about
and have one, instead
I am going to play out
with my friends,
kiss-chase, and
let’s pretend
I shall luxuriate
in dressing up
build castles
in my head
I will infuriate
those worrying
about that big tomorrow
and the monster
I like this and what a wonderful idea – if only we could un-grow !
