Growing up
No Plagiarism!pFMz1SgW9zQxA25B2HUEposted on PＥNAＮＡ

*Author's note: this poem requires you to read from the bottom up, giving the effect of 'growing up'*

.

As I find my eternal peace

To learn to let go

My mission will be to find release

When I become elderly

.

As I try to stay alive

To learn how to provide

My mission will be to survive

When I become an adult

.

As I worked through strife

To learn my place in society

My mission was to enjoy life

When I was a teenager

.

As I fell along the way

To learn to pick myself up

My mission was to play

When I was a child

.

As I began to walk1110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkvhohlhsN

To learn how to interact

My mission was to talk

When I was a toddler

.

As I grew tall

To learn how to grow up

My mission was to crawl

When I was a baby
