I'm Now Eighteen !

A poem written for a friends daughter, her brother was sadly killed last year. Now that I am eighteen. It’s very clear to see. Why my mum,my dad and family. Are very dear to me. We’ve been through a lot. Through out my eighteen years. The up’s and down’s of life. Have brought me many tears. But I thank you all for giving me The love and tender care. That has brought me through these eighteen years With lots of love to spare. I have come through childhood. Adolescence too And now that I am an adult. I’m supposed to know what to do! So thanks to my family. My friends and everyone I know. I’m eighteen and an adult. With lots of time to grow!
