Now, talking…that was easy,
“Ma Ma”… “Da Da”…and they loved it!
“Goo – Goo”…and “Ga – Ga” wasn’t enough…though,
When you’re ‘older’…it just doesn’t fit!

My goodness…life moves fast,
From the day of our birth;
The struggle begins early,
To prove…our self-worth!

But, back to the talking…walking,
It’s but the first step;
So much to learn…so fast,
But, I can do it…I bet!

“These are THE GROWING YEARS,
At least…it’s what I’m told;
I’ll have to take their word for it,
Maybe their wiser…just because they’re old.

Once I’ve mastered walking,
Perhaps…I’ll learn to run;
It must be very hard to do,
But, it looks like it might be fun!

I hope that’s all I have to learn,
It seems like quite a bit;
Yes, these are THE GROWING YEARS,
But, already…I’ve had enough of it!!!
