Prodigal Poem by Rex-mayor Ubini

Prodigal



When I was a child
I couldn’t listen to the voice of time
I just wanted to be grown
And have my name widely known.

So I leaped ahead of clock
Over many crucial things
What I didn’t know was;
They leaped over with me.

It seems the weight of life
Is now doubled on my hands
And now I understand
What I needed was patience

I wish to be a child again?
If not for anything,
Just to dance in the rain,
And wash away my pain.
