Posted in Celebration: Universal Children’s Day 20 November

“Childhood means simplicity.
Look at the world with the child’s eye –
it is very beautiful.”
Kailash Satyarthi

Universal Children’s Day

The world would be total shit
Without a child in it
No laughter, nor giggles
No mystery nor riddles

Doing all kinds of silly things
With her dog and tiny wings
Future wide and open
For them you are hoping

Joy and fortune
Without worry or torture
Today’s little children
Tomorrow’s gems and pearls

Let them play
Let them stay
Little children
A while longer
