When I Was Born

My parents gave me life on my first birthday, I wear no birthday suits on my body And i was unclad in mind with no thoughts, I saw things around,some lights glowing And some cloths hanging from the rope, Yet those things remained stranger to me, I didn't know what actually they were But they did conquered my feeble eyes, I enjoyed watching light flickering And cloths dancing along the tune of wind, I was fed with the most yummy liquid I cannot identify,a woman just gave me. I could see a man standing besides me As i was busy enjoying the fluid offered by the generous woman, I could sense his rough hands Touching my heads with a smile on his face, I could see some more eyes spying me, They were talking i can't comprehend, They were not so big like the man and the woman, I was stupid, i didn't know woman was my mother and the man was my father, Spying eyes were no strangers but my brothers and sisters.

This is so sweet Yedar. I imagine you are dealing with a translation site. Sometimes it does not always correctly translate into English but I was able to comprehend everything you wanted to convey. It is nice to know you. I love your country though I have never been able to visit. Aloha, Connie
