Children

Children, careless children, 
      innocent happy children, 
             your happiness gives me joy,  
                       your squeezed half words 
                                    are music to my ears.

I don't have to understand, 
           your faces tell me more, 
                     your faces, say it all.

Children life's continuation, 
                what do we do, and you leave
                                  your innocence behind.
