Hi Judi,
Many internet sites, including poemhunter.com, are unreliable,
especially when rendering literature. As a result we always go to the
original source. In this case, the poem "As I Grew Older" appears in
"The Collected Poems of Langston Hughes", published in 1995 by Vintage
Classics, an imprint of Random House. Permission was granted to us by
The Estate of Langston Hughes.
I hope this helps.
Gay
