From A Boy to A Man
It was a warm sunny day,
The day I realized I was a grownup.
My mom and sister got out of the car,
And I was asked to pull up.
A man I’ve never seen entered my car,
With a serious look on his face.
I became extremely anxious,
Hoping I wouldn't become a disgrace.
I started off slow,
Trying to catch my groove.
But after the first sharp turn,
I really began to move.
It only took five minutes,
Before I began to see.
The smiling faces of the people,
Whom I call my family.
I told them that I passed,
Knowing I did great.
The same, stearn man exclaimed,
“Please move up to that gate”.
The day had finally come,
One I had long awaited.
My own license, holding it in my hands,
Feeling as if I was completely inflated.
There and then,
A time in my life had come and left.
I realized I had become a grownup that day,
Only for my mother to become completely stressed.
