A Child's Simplicity
They don’t carry the world's troubles on their shoulders. Happiness is theirs to embrace. They run and jump with excitement. Happiness is at their beck and call. They don’t nurse and breed hurt. They let it away with the passing of the day. They see the positive side of each day believing the coming days will be better. They’re willing to assist despite being reprimanded. They’re the epitome of hope and trust.
Adorable beings,
They’re armour and shield bearers,
Stars in the night sky.
