Be Like A Child

by Kulbir Bhalla

Be like a child,
Somewhat wild,
Living every day
Playing your way,
Doing what you please
And being at ease;
Let your true you
Come into view.

Be like a child,
An innocent child;
Let your love bloom,
Spread its perfume
To one and all
Who hear your call;
Evil you can cure
When your heart is pure.

Be like a child,
A three year old child
Running around
With feet not on ground,
Carrying no sorrow,
No fear of tomorrow,
Always exploring,
Always soaring.

A nice poem, Kulbirji, more significant is that you always endeavor to maintain rhyme in your poetry and so successfully.

The theme is so appropriate; Innocence..thank you so much.
This photograph truly captures the innocence of both-the child as well as the adult in the company of the child. We need to be around children more, so their natural innocence rubs off on us!
