MY WORLD


MY WORLD

I t took
A while
To realize 
That it
Was
Fun time.

All were
Engrossed 
In Frowns...

I looked
From
One to the
Other
And another, 
They all
Wore
The same
Look.

That of
Welcoming
Wrinkles
Early
In life.

Oh, I'm 
Not joining
The lot
I thought...
I'm much
Too young
To look
Crinkly.
I shall
Smile
And be 
Happy.

I turned
Away
From them
All
Found
Myself
A corner
And there
I sat
Thinking
Happy thoughts.

Soon I
Was in
A world
Of my
Own.
A lone
Happy-go-lucky
Person!
