My Inner Child

MY INNER CHILD

          My inner child
            rejoices to recollect childhood fun.
            laments remembering deprivation of Mom’s love.
            Joyfully reminisces affectionate Dad always caring for her.
           acknowledges Grandma’s love and care with life-long gratitude.
         suffers on memories of injustices done to an innocent helpless girl.

       The joy of inner child in mine still 
         flies flying kite up high on sky.
         flows with paper boat to float in pool nearby.
          dances and prances on puppet show. 
           flashes on glow of rainbow.

         Inner child of mine stays superfine
          with dreams rippling on streams of joy
                    relishing childish merriments,
                     cheers getting easy, being busy
                       feeling jovial on trivial.
