This post was meant for Children’s Day that just passed by, but then childhood holds a special place in the lives of each one of us. This is a phase that implies a lot of lessons to be remembered for a lifetime. We wish we could be kids again at some junctures in our lives. Probably, this is why we tend to kids even when we don’t know them personally. They are always a great stressbuster. A simple smile would make our day. To everyone out there, have the child in you make your life lively always!

Showcasing the purest of human emotions,
In spite of all the commotions,
Sheer innocence being the virtue,
Rarely found anywhere else..

Did we ever realize,
When did we actually grow up?

Reflecting back brings in a thousand thoughts,
We seemed so real and upfront,
Curiosity was so much welcome,
With our hearts so warm,
And full of unbiased love, life, joy, and bliss,
Spreading smiles all around,
Genuineness was a rarity to be found..

Did we ever think upon,
Why have we left all that behind?

We slowly gave in to the,
Wilderness of the adult lives,
Never ever were we so concerned,
For the unknown future,
Digging the past wasn’t a ritual,
All we knew was living in the moment,
Enjoying the present to the fullest.. 

Childhood gave us a lot of memories,
And lessons for a lifetime,
Which can simplify the man-made complexities,
Pangs of adulthood and its anxieties!
