Milestone

The sweetest part of my story

is when I, a young girl, turns into a lady;

No more ponytails but a crown

jeans and shirt turns into a gown

Every chuckle and meaningful laughs

reminds me of some kiddie stuff

forget not of days with playful bliss

and all my childhood memories

During my pre-school days

All nails painted with yellow

sneakers changed into stiletto

tiny ears with happy bunnies

shines now with fancy rubies

Symbolic gifts given by peers

special meanings shared with tears

young men waiting to dance

and give a rose if they had a chance

Dance for my 18 roses

Time had passed for nursing as a baby

'cause here's a world for maturity

to initiate morality

and live my life meaningfully.
