Poetry For the Ages

Poetry

Some poetry that just came to me. This is all going to be beat poetry. Beat poetry is poetry where you just write, you can't go back and make any changes. Once you have it, you have it, there is no going back. Think of it like a brain dump.

Changing

Year 1:

I am small and I don't know much,

But I love you.

Year 2:

I'm bigger now,

I know more,

Mommy and Daddy say I'm smart,

I love them.

Year 4:

I started school,

I'm getting smarter everyday,

Mommy and Daddy say I've practically got a foot out the door,

I love them.

Year 8:

I don't like school,

I wish I could stay home with Mom and Dad,

They say I have to learn,

They make me help with the new baby,

I don't like him,

He took Mom and Dad away,

I hate him.

Year 16:

I can almost taste it,

No more school,

If it weren't for the stress of school weighing me down I might be jumping,

I can't wait to be on my own,

With her,

I love her.

Year 32:

I miss them,

I miss their nagging,

I miss Mom and Dad,

I lost them in a split second,

I wish I had been there more,

I'm glad I'm not alone though,

With Brother,

Her,

And Baby.

Year 64:

My knees are gone but not my life,

I'm as old as ever but I'm happy,

Baby is all grown now,

And Baby had Grandchild.

Year 128:

Here lies Me,

Child,

Sibling,

Spouse,

Parent,

Grandparent,

Long live the changing world.
