WISHING

 

When I was just a youngster,

I wished that I was old,

So I could do what I wanted,

And not what I was told.

 

Then as I got older

And school got in the way,

I wished it was the weekend,

And wished the days away.

 

 Then as I aged a bit,

And work would fill my day,

I again wished for the weekend

And wished those days away.

 

Well now I am finally older,

And I don\'t see things the same.

No wishing days away for me,

I Just enjoy what still remain.

 

I see with new perspective,

All those days that have past,

And I wish I had them back again,

They went away far too fast.
