On Becoming an Adult by Ryan Shank-Rowe

 


I'm excited to become an adult.
I'm excited to try to be able to live with other friends.
I know it will be somewhat difficult but I am ready for the challenge.
Having a goal is always inspiring and I know I can do it with some help.

Collaborative Poem Inspired by Sasha's Poem

 

      
Sometimes I wonder what is love.
Is it the communication of trees?
Is it mine for the asking?
Is it giving a smile in the hard times?
Is it a melody?
Is it family?
Is it a baby’s smile?
Is it car rides through tunnels and along the mountain side?
Is it my friends supporting chats?
Is it beating of a heart?
Is it something from within or above?
Sometimes I wonder what is love?  
Is it sitting and sharing words with friends?
Is it friends who understand you?
Is it the sunshine on your face?
Is it happy light?
Is it a gentle kiss on the cheek? 
Is it walking on the cloud?
