LITTLE BIT OF CHILDHOOD




                                             LITTLE BIT OF CHILDHOOD                                                 


                              Running around 
                              Laughing aloud
                              And then suddenly tip-toeing to a closed room 
                              A world in itself 
                              Leaving the childhood behind
                              Learning to be scared 
                              Every corner whispering looking at me 

                              The world seemed to be a game first
                              Anxious to grow up fast 
                              Till the first heart break
                              But ready to play on 

                              Each day bringing new problems
                              Along with new solutions
                              Anxieties start creeping up like ants
                              Sucking the sweat and the blood
                              The corollaries of modern life

                             How did the childhood get over 
                             Or is it really over 
                             Talking to God comes naturally 
                             Asking for help so very childlike 

                              We are capable of making a mark 
                              And become a spark of life
                              Or just be a little remark 
                                       
                               It all depends on us 
                              Ash exists in the charcoal
                              Even before it is burnt in fire            
                              And we have the fire within to make a mark
        
                              Don't escape from childhood 
                              Save a little bit in the corner of your heart
                              Your childhood, your innocence               
                              The reservoir of enthusiasm and joy

                               Innocent mind has no tomorrows and no yesterdays
                               Live like a child
                               Living fresh everyday with new energy 
                               Today and everyday


                                                               ---------------------
