The Purity of children

This is the innocence they talk about

no specks of hatred and no smell of doubt

when you tell him that you need a chair

his chair becomes your slave and he sits on the ground !

at that time you know that 

you are talking to a child! 

a whiter soul, you can never find

love is his everyday's drink 

passion falls with each eyes' blink 

spontaneity is so fashionable for him

no time to suspect and no need to think ! 

no pain to suffer

and no fights to remember

with trust so fat 

and mistrust so slender! :)

when you see him frowning 

but still with a smile

you know what you did 

you just annoyed a kid! 

I love 

the echo of their giggles in the swimming pool

their happiness that spreads so sharp and cool 

their sweetness that sticks to me when I hug them

and their hatred towards any restricting rule! 

So clingy but free

so smart but naive 

never harsh and never cruel

can't lie and can't deceive

so grateful and so kind 

with pure dreams in mind 

so keen to accomplish 

and so caring to find 

this is the way they act

this is the nature of the CHILD ! 

Their smile never fades away 

i love the way they ask for cake 

the way they run to hug me

and the simple tricks they make! 

i love when i see my present

beside their pillow

i wish that i can be a great 

role model and hero !

My tears run when they try to stick

the flowers back to the tree

if i told them not to cut them

and they apologize to me
