Growth Spurt by Thomas PowersIt seemed so long since growth on path occurred
Twould move me from my awkward teenage years.
My days in wait to be adult now blurred,
I lived no more with adolescent fears.
As now lifes meter comes around again
The angst of future plans returns. My age
Will soon expect I sit in rocker when
I ponder and prepare to leave lifes stage.
Refuse I, though, to, cept this fate when still
Remains so many deeds undone. Ive set
My goals to meet and help new friends fulfill
Their dreams to change the world in ways unmet.
Thus God reply 'bout how last years I spent,
Well done, when deeds of mine and their's present.
