THE WILD ONE.

Yes, he was an only child;
One they say, was born to be wild.
It started from the age of five;
He would catch earthworms and eat them live.
His parents were indulgent and not the best;
But even their patience was put to the test.
Many were the pranks over the years;
Poor parents - they couldn't believe this child was theirs.
He was known by all as 'devil may care';
His family had never seen him shed a tear.
He bought himself a motorbike;
Then styled his hair in colorful spikes.
The bike he rode with awful speed;
Especially when he was smoking weed.
He lost a leg in the second of two crashes;
Even then, no tears were seen on his lashes.
As soon as the time to do it was right;
He bought a new leg then got into a fight.
He continues to ride with reckless speed;
Warnings from family he refuses to heed.

Good work on the poem! I'm glad my children were not like that.

Good peom!
What a headache for the parents. I guess he has to learn to face the consquences from his own actions.

@Kandae11 Oh he will get there one day, when his body could no longer keep with the wild lifestyle.
