Childhood Days

Childhood Days



Laughing, singing and band playing,
echo through the wood sides.
It's the sound of happy people,
amid the starry night and moonbeams.
As the moon smiles at me,
the sound of crickets can be heard
along the river, bushes and trees.
The hooting of owls made my hair go up.
The fireflies like lanterns hanging up on trees
twinkling like semi-precious gems.
What an amazing thing to watch!
I was tempted to climb the tree,
to catch one just to satisfy my curiosity.
I was holding this tiny delicate creature,
I put it in my palm and found what make them twinkle.
But I let it go when I was through.
Alas, these happened during my childhood . . . years ago.
