    JUST A LITTLE GIRL



    Just a little girl growing up in a grown up world
    Wanting to be me on my own
    I know it's true, I have alot of growing to do
    But I'll find that out alone
    Decisions don't seem that hard to make
    I'll figure out which path to take
    I'll find riches in either life or a diamond & pearl
    Which ever I chose, win or lose-
    You see me as just a little girl
    Puberty has found me,-- and led me to the woman I'll be
    Sooner than what you could hope
    Although I'm still growing, it's the "Not knowing"
    That will teach me how to cope
    Yes, they'll be lessons to learn & bridges I'll burn
    Finding out things the hardest way
    Lots of advice, mean & nice
    And listen to what others say
    It's my time to explore, find out if theres more
    Let me make my own mistakes-see if I have what it takes
    Let me give life a whirl...instead of being...- just a little girl.....

    Nice touch! Growth of wisdom is seen more than the growth of the body! Keep writing neighbor!

    That could've been written by my daughter. It just reminds me so much of her growing up. Thanks for sharing. TS

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
