The Pure and Wholesome World of Childhood: A Reflective Journey

Childhood is a forgotten pristine part of our life

Where angels of peace and love reside without strife

Dwell in the heart and soul of children’s suites

Who unfortunately live among the wickedest brutes;

At nightfall, in tranquility when I close my eyes

I float in the soothing thin air

Cherishing life’s lighter yet moments finer

Life it seems never had a feeling of sighs;

Those forlorn thoughts, when remembered now

Ushers in mellifluous nocturnal musical vibes

When life was full of exuberance with such lovely tribes

A life that was pure and whiter than the dainty snow;

Children, tiny, petite, dainty and beautiful

Resonate with harmony in every action that is so graceful

They are loving and forgiving even if we hurt them

Unlike adults who are remorseless and create mayhem;

Their innocent mirthful games are forms of inventions

That aim to break the shackles of indoctrinated conventions

Seeking new ways to see life from a different perspective

I realize now, how much I miss that life in retrospective;

I oft marvel why God crafted this wondrous period in our lifetime

At the beginning, as we trudge and get mired in various syndromes meantime

 Perhaps for us to realize in the end

This time of life is Godsend;
