Week 7 Poems
"When I was One-and-Twney" by Brooks was very interesting and fun to read.  It brought back memories of when I was one and twenty, but it also relates to my family right now as we have one that is that age now.  Both when I was 21 and now with my oldest being 21, this poem rings soooooo true.  It is amazing as I watch my daughter and hear her sigh at my wife and I when attempting to guide her in better directions...a sigh that is obviously telling us that she already knows what is best and we don't understand anything, afterall, we are "old" and "Don't get it".  Oh how I wish I had listened more when I was one and twenty!
