Topic:When I Grow Up
by Joan SerratelliWhen I was a child,
I used to play
The "when I grow Up"
I want to be game
I want to be a writer,
adverising would suit me fine
I don't want to be a wife
or mother- boring
not for me
I did grow up
I became a wife
and mother and never
looked back
I enjoyed my role in life
But the children grew
as children do
and I could hear them play
the "when I grow up"
I want to be game
