Growing - Poem for Poetry Project

Growing

Andrew Beres

Youngest age,
Starting page,
A sprout in the dirt.

Golden days,
Sunny rays,
Quite full of dessert.

Older years,
Lesser cheers,
A bud in the soil.

Darker views
Innocence lose
A light in turmoil.

Strongest time,
Seeing crime,
A blooming flower.

Darkness prime.
Tougher climb,
A conflicting hour

Old age reigns,
The life drains,
The flower withers.

Falling rain
Brings some pain

But the light grows bigger
