Wise Beyond Their Young Years

It amazes me how some people
seem to be born more mature than others
and wise beyond their young years
even when they are still children
And they know exactly what they want to be
that they achieve when they grow older,
the kid that says he or she wants to be a doctor
and achieves that goal in his or her life
is one of many amazing examples.
I lacked their wisdom and their direction
was misdirected and a late bloomer
didn’t find my way until age fifty.
And wish I could have been like them.

Quomodo cogis comas tuas sic videri? 79, cancer survivor, work out 3 times a week, ride my exercise bike 2 hours daily. Began writing poetry October 2023, living in Greensboro, North Carolina, originally from just outside of Boston, MA. Retired and enjoying a solo, reclusive life always researching and gaining knowledge. Most of my poems are fictional. I write about many things: Spirituality, Mysticism, the Paranormal, Cryptids, Werewolves, Ghosts, 411s, Nature, Birds, Animals, Romantic Love, Death, NDEs, Women Persecuted as Witches, Fictional Characters I Create, News Stories, AI, Robots, Insects, like the poem entitled, Hail Caesar Bob, (about when bees were swarming me outside the door to my apartment), and many other topics. I write a minimum of 3 poems daily, sometimes more.
