Ajju

Dedicated To a Cute Little Child Who Touched My Heart: A cute little three-year-old I got to meet, On a winter evening, two years back; With his mom, to my house he breezed in, A tiny face with almond eyes black. The moment he got in, he did explore my house, Rollicking and romping - mischievous plays begin; His straight-faced funny questions to me, And his sparkling smile my heart did win. An evening well spent, joyous and memorable As along with my son, he did play tireless; This kid has a special place in my heart, Though after he left, my house was a mess! Date: 08/27/2021

Such a cute poem... It reminds me of our neighbor's little son who used to visit us every weekend, even after we vacated to a new place. He used to come to our place and make us embrace the bliss by his cute little acts and of of course a lot of mischievous acts but few years before his dad got transferred. Beautifully written and yes I am a tamilian and you???
