I Miss Being Young
I miss when your worst problem was catching that firefly that flew just a little to high out of your reach.
 
 I miss when your worst drama was figuring out who had the toy first.
 
 I miss when the only thing you had to worry about was that froggy you just caught escaping.
 
 I miss when the only drugs you had to worry about was the nasty cough syrup your mom gave you when you were sick.
 
 I miss when the worst punishment was time out in the corner.
 
 I miss being able to think of something to do no matter where you were.
 
 I miss when the clothes you wore and the hair you had didn't matter.
 
 I miss when everyone was your friend and you didn't have to worry about relationships.
 
 I miss when your mommy or daddy could solve even the worst of problems.
 
 I miss being young!
