Days go with you and bid goodbye Hours slide down and die And drape down The innocence of the Noun! With the experience of Adverbs Of place, time and frequency, the Verbs Replace the endearing use of Nouns (Slowly moving from lisping sounds ) To the stable use of personal Pronouns! Individuality stands alone keeping the Subject alone Sometimes with a defiant adolescent tone Distractions, doubts in the use of Determiners A shaky ground for the beginners! Disagreement with the Subject-Verb agreement begins Early during this period and lurks within, and at times springs With the Nouns like mathematics, rhetorics and news Without any tension to meddle in don’ts and dos! What I wish to say in a few sentences Is not enough about life’s infinite time and tenses! To deconstruct the grammar of growing up is not enough As adolescence is a diamond in the rough; It is a living discourse; both simple and tough Ironical, unpredictable, surprising, puzzling stuff Needs patience, pardon, perseverance and fun To handle its substance for every daughter and son!

A Grammar of Growing Up
Days go with you and bid goodbye Hours slide down and die And drape down The innocence of the Noun! With the experience of Adverbs Of place, time and frequency, the Verbs Replace the endearing use of Nouns (Slowly moving from lisping sounds ) To the stable use of personal Pronouns! Individuality stands alone keeping the Subject alone Sometimes with a defiant adolescent tone Distractions, doubts in the use of Determiners A shaky ground for the beginners! Disagreement with the Subject-Verb agreement begins Early during this period and lurks within, and at times springs With the Nouns like mathematics, rhetorics and news Without any tension to meddle in don’ts and dos! What I wish to say in a few sentences Is not enough about life’s infinite time and tenses! To deconstruct the grammar of growing up is not enough As adolescence is a diamond in the rough; It is a living discourse; both simple and tough Ironical, unpredictable, surprising, puzzling stuff Needs patience, pardon, perseverance and fun To handle its substance for every daughter and son!
