Of all the things we made,
Children are the loveliest
With smiles, that never fade
Good tidings in our love nest,
Children bring. Their joy is unbound,
Their predilections, quite modest
In keen eyes, they hold stories profound
It’s not easy to remain stern
With sweet munchkins around
From little cherubs, we should learn
To live in the moment
For tomorrow, have less concern
To look for rainbows in the firmament,
Create our own sunshine
Amidst rains of laughter incessant
Childhood is closest to divine
To be as a child, I persuade
Create our own sunshine
With smiles that never fade
