kids

I played with young ones today
I saw the joys of life
Of memories long lost in my soul,

The happiness an ice cream brings to their eyes
The reckless abandon of mess all over their face
The sheer ecstasy of the smile you receive
When the kid sees you looking at their messy face
What bliss.

All this delight is a insensitive reminder to me
Of my unfruitful kin.
My supreme fear is rested its head in my haven.

So Moms and Dads when you feel you have had enough
Remember to buy your masterpiece an ice cream
And behold your joy
This is love bartered out of life.
