[NOT REALLY- but I'm kind of looking forward to it--DW] I'm into my 2nd childhood And really having a blast, I'd forgotten how much fun it was It was so far in my past! But now it's coming back to me As I lose my hair and other things, Who wants to be old and responsible-- When this "wild and free" really swings! And I have the advantage Of those first time arounders, My parents aren't here to hinder Restrain or restrict when I flounder. Oh yes, I'm embarrassing others Who are part of my life right now, But all in all, they still love me Bemused by my youthful recall. So I'm immature for my age Would you rather that I just be dead? Let me enjoy these great days For I've not many left up ahead! I'm into my second childhood And the toys are more fun these days, I'm glad I waited to re-enlist Come join me in the fun of my craze. Don't call me a senior citizen I'm a recycled teen-ager, and how! Now that I've got my second wind-- I find that life can be a Ball! |

Ya know, I think you've got something here David.... "Oh yes, I'm embarrassing others Who are part of my life right now, But all in all, they still love me Bemused by my youthful recall." My kids (24 & 21) seem to be having a bit of a problem with this....Go figure!!!! Great poem. Bonnie |

David: Great attitude! You're only as young as you feel. Getting old is only a state of mind anyway. I love this poem and I'm in 100% agreement here, bro. love, ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

Yes, age is a state of mind. There are too many people in this world who let life pass them by with such a serious attitude. Life is what you make it and can be enjoyed while taking on serious matters. They say laughter is the best medicine and a smile will change your whole attitude. Great poem, I will always keep it in mind. |

David~ Into the sandbox of my youth I choose to sift again ... but the days would not be sweet without the joy of friends. Lots of gaiety and laughter fill the soul of my playground. With friends to join the merriment, I want to spin the merry-go-round. Come one - come all the playground is never closed ! A delightful look at staying youthful of heart and mind, David. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

David, Sounds like you're ready to have some fun, life is what you make it, as age is just a number. Reach for the stars and concur your dreams. I love this poem it's so full of life and carefree. |

I feel better now. I'm not the only adult kid!! I've never grown up (although I have slowed down a little - lol) and I hope I never do. Children definitely have the right idea!! Good poem. |
