Shrieks of laughter
Bouts of giggle
Lots of sand swipes
Resounding spanks
Marked my my childhood
A tumultuous puberty of painful adjustment
Dads boimeranging escapades
Brought up mum's trauma
There were wars, unrest
Experienced love? Crushes, last, yearning to noticed
Was judged as an adult
Yet i was still on the way
From my academics
And my up-bringing
Of all perception
By all heard, seen, done
Proceed of mentors dear,
Teachers encouragement
Suitors harassment!
Clinging friends, foes more more so
Back and forth
faith in God
Who chiseled and led...
I became me, by his Grace
Made Made what i am.
