Maturing Poem by Audrey Heller

For the first time, in a long time, I'm
walking on air! For the first time, in
a long time, I'm fully aware! All that's
around me, I know had been here
before. Why then now, do I see so
much more? Everything seems so
different, then it used to be, even
clearer too. Changing in so many
ways, like my point, of view. What
miracle has taken place? What
could it be? I'm no longer the same
person, as I see a brand new me!
Is it because I'm growing older?
With age it is said, wisdom will
come. If that be true, then I accept
it, for I like who I've become! Days
are now more precious, you notice
things you never did before. Finding
out, what life's all about, you begin
to live and enjoy it, so much more!
