Pure Bliss (Theme: Simple Joys Of Life)
Pure Bliss (Theme: Simple Joys Of Life)
What gift do you want for your birthday?
Should we buy you a pretty dress with frills?
Or should we arrange for the party atop Nanda Hills?
Would you love to eat a rainbow cupcake?
Should we call over all your friends for a picnic by the lake?
Should we organise a theme party with Pirates and fairytales
Or a princess cake with double chocolate ice_ cream would make you happy dearest?
Little Emily heard my options but did not like any of the ideas
Mumma, I want to see a rainbow with seven hues in real on my birthday.
Holding your hand, watching the rainbow I will enjoy my strawberry Sundae
That will be a moment of Pure Bliss, for too simple is her wish
Then she said, Mumma! We will make paper boats and float them in the stream
Come prepared with your raincoat to splash in happy rain puddles sans gloom
Later we will go to pluck mangoes, litchis and blackberries from Grandpa's garden
We will share them with the street children
Seeing their radiant faces, I bet it will be a moment of Pure Bliss sans a burden.
I decided to enjoy the moment of Emily's birthday with simple joys as per her choice
For, even if she is only five, I must value her choice.
