Poem

I greatly miss my beautiful childhood.
My mind wanders to those lovely years,
When life was sheltered under my parental roof,
With my siblings and cousins, a gregarious gang!

It was a time when no worries weighed us down.
Had no responsibilities to shoulder.
Like wind, we ran across plains and meadows 
Chasing butterflies and lured by the songs of birds. 

Fun it was to play ‘Hide and Seek’,
With friends reversing the roles in turn,
The ‘cop’ chasing the thief in hide,
And the ‘thief’ evading the cop in chase.

Never knew, foolish it was to bury deep
Many a coin, stolen from the piggy bank
With hopes to see them sprout some time,
Yielding thousands for the autumn pick.

On warm summer nights, we caught fireflies,
Shut them in glass bottles to see them glow
And kept them in dark corners with all lights off
For the thrill of watching a mini firework in the night

Our days were resonant with giggles and laughter.
Each day awaited us with new wonders unfolding.
We watched the world with undying curiosity
It was a time of carefree adventures and enjoyment. 

As we grew old, how in vain we tried to hold back 
The moments of childhood joy that fleeted away, 
So fast like the receding tides of an ocean, 
And glue up the shards of shattered innocence.

In the evening of life, in my twilight years
In the cusp between my old age and death,
I still search for those days that have slipped away
Like tiny grains of sand between fingers.
