Wild and Free

Tanya Wallace on Aug 8, 2009

Just a silly little poem I came up with.

Wild and free
Is what I want to be
But my age says wake up
And you will see

Wild and free
Is what I want to be
But that’s only in your dreams
The mirror sceams

Its only for kids
Or so I’m told
Responsibilites and chores
Damn clothes to fold

Drunk in bar
Everyone else to blame
If you can’t take the pain
Don’t play the game

Wild and free
What does it mean
Making mistakes
For your parents to clean

I grew up a long time ago
My daughters the teenager now
Wild and free
I think I’ll enjoy the show

Well, well, well. Great little poem. Get a new mirror and start over again. (A knitting goth?) lol.

I like the picture. It matches your poem. Great little work.

That’s cute, to bad we all have to grow up.

Nice poetry. Being free would oftentimes be associated with irresponsibility.

The picture was very appropriate for the poem. As the old saying goes, your only as old as you feel. That’s why heating pads were developed. Well done friend.

Hi there!
