Eighteen
Of my past life, sat and pondered.
Deep into past, my thoughts wandered.
As a child, stubborn and rash
Moved at eighteen, soon as had cash.
–
Put lease on flat, then bought a car.
Learned on my pay could not go far.
Working harder, back to school went.
On better job mind soundly bent.
–
Independence was gained on own.
Quest accomplished wisdom has grown
Now My child, stubborn and rash
Moves at eighteen, soon as has cash. . .
