The Pubescents Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

The Pubescents

Rating: 5.0


When you ask them,
"What are you doing"?
They say,
"Nothing".

When you inquire
"What do you want"?
They answer,
"We do not know".

When you tell them
"This is what you gonna do".
They quickly say,
"We absolutely know".

I was once
A pubescent
And my favorite line was
"What else can I do "?

Oh, the Pubescents
Their lives
Are full of wonders.
