Born Yesterday

I was born yesterday
And the waves came crashing
People were amazed
I charmed the world
That childish smile
No hidden fear
This is me, I love you
I don’t know why
I’m here, I’m ready
What happens next?
Is anybody there?

Today I’m sitting
Wondering
What’s going on
It’s been
A busy trip
But quick
I’d never have thought
That time would fly
So fast.

I’m leaving tomorrow
So short a stay
I can’t believe
That those fresh leaves
Are shrivelled up
Like flesh well worn
I planted that tree
Not two days ago
A childish act
It was for ‘mankind’
Our children’s children
So bye
