Youth

Laughter spills out over the floor

Like bubbly wine -

The careless conversation,

So caught up in the wonder of it all:

That we are young,

And we are strong,

Invincible, it seems, as we stand here.  Though -

We trip over our newly found feet.

But we do not view these stumbles as failures -

Instead, we glorify them as shining memories

Of these in-between days

Called "youth",

Where mistakes can be made again and again,

And consequence carries no real weight.
