If you are not who you say you are, <br />As you present yourself initially... <br />Why bother playing hide and seek? <br /> <br />I know very few people who are grown, <br />Willing to play childish games... <br />With those still stuck in the playground! <br />And waiting, <br />For someone to push them on a swing... <br />As they lick on an icecream cone. <br /> <br />And denying the age of 40... <br />Came and left after paying a long visit. <br />Years ago!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
