“Grow up,” said by so many mature individuals

“When will you grow up? When will you be a man/woman?” said by others

My question in rebuttal is, why?

Have you seen what adults do?

Have you felt the results of the decisions they render?

Look at the laws of the land

You used to be hung by the neck for stealing a horse

and now,

you have to wear helmets while riding a horse.

Children live in a world of dreams and fantasy

this is my world, a world of wonder, excitement, and yes

joy

So, never grow up

>>>learn to know<<<

yet refrain from sticking your tongue to a frozen flagpole

or try to change the minds of those who embrace

old.
