The little child

THE LITTLE CHILD

The little child looks at the world

with wonder in his eye

He is an innocent little fellow

yet always curious to know why

The little child is very naughty

a real mischievous creature

He lives life on his own terms

without worrying about the future

The little child fears the unknown

and if he's hurt, he starts crying

But he doesn't brood on it for long

with glee he soon starts laughing

The little child wants to live his dreams

he's stubborn to have his demands met

He wants things to happen his way

nothing seems impossible to him yet

How much ever we may deny it

inside all of us resides a little child

Don't be in a hurry to grow old

don't let the little child in you become mild!
