My Child

My child Read this book Mother has bought for you After which Mother will bring you for The usual evening walk Through the greenery Rejoicing under the Light of dusk With your innocent voice Filling the air Remember not to run too far away Don't hurt those little lives I know you want to catch Those jumping insects To feed your colourful fishes At home Leave them alone Play around Let's be good friends With all living creatures around My child Your teacher has taught you to sing Some sweet songs today Sing them now And sing them loud As you run on your little two feet Mum feels the love for you Even more in this Wonderful environment Of sublime beauty Those myriad flowers Welcoming us with Scintillating fragrances Bright red roses Morning glory Wild orchids And the hynotic chirping Of the little birds In the nearby trees Welcoming each other Back to roost And sharing Their adventures Of the day My child Let's go home Dont say ''No'' It will be too late Once the sun goes to sleep Darkness will set in Turn around And be home For your study And bedtime stories And then sleep sweetly Till the sun rises again Brining us the cheers And promises of another Wholesome day
