Child
Child is no longer a child
when is chewing a chain
Chain cannot be chew
if child is still a child
What can tickle a child to laughter
can’t stroke a cat to sleep
Cat still likes stroke
but no fingers to stroke it back
Child is a gold in parent’s hands
when child still a child
Child become a stick of pull on
when parent cripple to an old age
Child is foal
when grown into horse carry the cart of his family
