The adolescent finds,
In just the time of all his troubles,
A perfect harmony as he swings;
Back and forth to the creak, creak
Of his childhood play set.
The in-between times are in-between.
This is natural. This is perfectly how it should be.
He does not know that all his questions
Will become the answers
And that that will be ok.
Yet in the back and forth, back and forth
He experiences that natural perfection.

Quick to read, maybe quick to write, stop by whenever you feel like it to read and share short poetry. Do try and make it the best you possibly can.

The titles for all the branches following yours must be different lines or phrases from your poem. Please make the titles appropriately capitalized. The goal is to make good titles for the next person, so make sure your little poem is as full of good lines as you can manage. ( :

That being said, don't be afraid to join in!

Make sure your poem relates to the title that you select. It can do this in any way you like--it does not have to relate to the poem before it, although that is an option if you choose.

NOTE: to make sure these poems stay short, your poem should not exceed 12 lines. If it does, I will ask you kindly to remove it or edit it. ( :

Please not mature.

That's all! Enjoy!
