This is it

Painted nails
and frilly dresses,
boys in suits,
with little caps on their heads.

Everyone whispers:
"remembver when"
and
"remember the time"
everyone is full of memories.

It's like a funeral
in the way that people look back
on the times they had before this
with the person
that is bering celebrated today.

It's not so much like a funeral though.
More like a "rebirth".
Leaving childhood
for the better things.

This is what
Bat Mitzvahs are all about.

    Wonderful! I've never been to a Bar Mitsvah either. They sound a little sad and a lot happy. Growing up!
