Dear me,
How is life ten years from now? Right now I am in college, and it is awsome! I was wondering, did I get the job I wanted when I wrote this,
a child therapist?
Or did I go down a diffrent path,
like teaching or social work, something else that would be a blast?
Did I marry my love, ro did he run away?
Do I have a pet with wich to play?
Did I grow fat or covered in warts and wrinkles?
Or am I lean and my eyes still twinkle?
What is the future like, I wish I knew now.
Than I could plan my life, and embrace it because I know how.
Author notes
well it started off non rhyming, than it kind of turned into a poem. Anyways, I hope you like it...

Dear me,
Dear me, this is a good piece!!! thanks for sharing! -slick99 -
great look at the future
I just read your profile and this poem and realized we have a lot in common. I am a 19 year old female in college and I too am thinking about the field of psychology and social work. I would love to talk to you about it some day. Send me a message

a good piece, you should put this away somewhere safe on paper and in ten years time re read it
it will bring smiles

I like this. It would be so much easier to plan each step of our lives if we knew what the future held, but then I guess all of the joy of surprise would disappear and make life rather boring.
I really thought these lines were cute:
Did I marry my love, or did he run away?
Do I have a pet with which to play?
especially the "Did I marry my love, or did he run away?"
line. It made me laugh.
Good job and good luck in the contest!

This is an amazing write! This is exacly the kind of thing I was looking for. The warts and wrinklies line gave me a giggle.
Well Done! Thank you for entering and best of luck at judging.

LOL. I think it's a great piece. Isn't it really aggravating when they won't cooperate and decide to rhyme any way???
