"In every person is hidden a child who wants to play."

~Harvey Ruben


Poem Artwork

No matter how old we are we’ll never grow up, or so they say

I don’t feel any older today than I did yesterday

However I don’t feel like taking my shirt and going out to play

I think I’ll simply prop my feet up and rest today

I believe I will simply sit back and spend time in relaxation

And dwell on thoughts of when I first met her and first gave my devotion

A love that so quickly turned into fires of fervent passion

One that led to many years spent together in complete adoration

Happy times like when I first became a father and young smiles of my three little ones

Who too soon became teenagers and too soon fully grown

I watched as they too fell in love and had kids of their own

Now this kid is a grandfather and his life starts anew

I say to them, each and every one, “I love you”

Beautiful expression of love to your family. As child-like eyes, waiting for the Father! What a wonderful picture...I refuse to grow up either! Count me in!

Lovely sentiments, Lew. What you express within these verses also reminds me of why I am not insulted or upset when people constantly tell me that I "never grew up." Love and blessings,

Regis
