Stuck and growing in my mum's belly things were dark.

On my life's path I started to make my mark.

Cells developed in my brain as I dropped into a colourful world,

With my eyes ,an extension to my brain ,many curious images unfurled.

 

My brain cells were learning ,everything was new,

Learning how to  walk,strategically I did do.

Connection between brain and feet at first was unsteady,

But walking soon became automatic when my brain was ready.

 

Many different cells were appearing in my brain,

Distributing different messages to my body for gain.

My hands ,versatile and sensitive were my detective,

Allowing my brain to reach out and become effective.

 

The ability to talk I did learn,

My brain for new experiences did yearn.

The effectiveness of my ears was beyond belief,

Gifted with 30,000 sensors bringing my brain relief.

Mastering the complexity of the sounds I did hear,

Absorbing numerous tunes to which I endear.

 

Dealing with puberty was quite a strain,

There was so much going on in my brain.

My brain was wired to take many a risk,

But fortunately this time of my life was brisk.

 

My teenage years passed as if on a fast train,

And at 20 became the proud owner of an adult brain.
