Come here little child
Come and sit with me for a while
Talk to me and tell me things
And disclose to me your newfound dreams
Prattle a little and croon a bit
And laugh with mirth as in a playful dream
Look at me with your beautiful eyes
And indulge me with your lovely smile
Unburden that weight from your heart
Give me a kiss and then we part.

Comforting affection, words which sure could make that little child smile, provide the solace looked for. Written with such compassionate expression that the craving to unburden, to laugh may come true for the little child.

ReplyDeleteSpeaks so much in so little..
Very well written.
i am sure this piece of writing can touch the hearts of all those old people out there who are being left abandoned by their children.. amazing work!
ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't be a surprise if the child just followed suite to all that has been written about here. The little nuance of listening and being patient and then the expanse of sentiments dripping from every word make for a leisure read almost as if anyone could pour their heart if convinced so.
