The Adolescent

 

These were the first signs he was growing up,

Every time a girl touched him, he'd quiver.

It was evidence he's no more a pup.

 

He'd look at women and gaze at their cup,

It run emotions and made him shiver.

These were the first signs he was growing up.

 

His voice deepening, it would now break-up,

Trickling of water-streams down the river.

It was evidence he's no more a pup.

 

Hairy bristles on his face would start-up,

His hormones would new moments deliver.

These were the first signs he was growing up.

 

He'd think about her, with her he'd catch-up,

Buy her gifts, he wants to be her giver.

It was evidence he's no more a pup.

 

He grew many feet tall and was grown-up,

He got his license, became a driver.

These were the first signs he was growing up,

It was evidence he's no more a pup.
