Keep the child within you Alive

This li’l girl/boy, that stay within all of us, irrespective of the gender

Refusing to grow–up, wanting only to wonder

Stubborn life circumstance – wants him/her to mature

Naive li’l girl/boy, holding the universe’s hand, wanting only to stay secure

Poised timeless Ocean, upon seeing this lovely girl/boy by the shore

Runs wavily & warily towards her, wanting only to give up being a bore

Untiring waves gang-up with the winds – to play with her/his hair

Li’l child within us – gives up on all the restraint, wanting only to feel – it’s all fair

Magnanimous sea bids goodbye with sea shells

Reminding all of us to never stay in our shells

Unfathomable depth of the sea, holding lively colourful life of aquatic

Tells the li’l girl/boy, within all of us, to dig deep to find the spirit of staying ecstatic
