The First Time (Some remember some don’t) Overwhelming anxiety Almost too much to take This is it, the real thing Wishing for no mistakes Nervously waiting Wondering what will be Nervous eyes of anticipation Sometimes wanting to flee Thoughts run through the mind Hoping that it’s perfect Excitement, nervousness It’s all part of it, isn’t it In the midst of it all A smile from ear to ear The feeling is undeniable Contentment, forgetting all fear It’s finally done You thought the day would never come A little tense at first In the end it was kind of fun One more stage in life Things change from here on end The first time in the potty No more diapers till the day You need Depends  |

LOL . . . saw this title and like cat thought of something totally different!!  This was a great read. Too cute!! Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
