To Be a Child ...



To live like a child again,
To wonder, To question
To laugh at a confused ant
and To bawl with full lungs
To use those full lungs ...
To breathe like a child
taking in every ounce of air
and using it up
curious,naughty
simple, crazy
an imagination to go nuts for
To look at the moon and imagine it melt
To want To eat the stars
because aren't they just sugar bars?
sprinkled arcoss an upside down ground?
To smile at strangers
and To get smiled back
To be scared and be pacified
To live just Today , because tomorrow?
Tomorrow is a concept Too Tough To define
To just live like a child!
To believe .. stories and fairies
Peter Pan and Santa Claus
To go out and play
get dirty in mud and taste the rain
Oh! To be a child again!
