Dear Childhood, come back, I miss you!

Gone are the days, when playing with GI Joes was cool…

Hiding them in your bag, and taking them to school…

Lying to your parents, and going to play…

Being playful and not wanting to obey.

Homework was like a daily chore…

But, all it would do was bore!

Little did I know that all of that would pay,

And, make me what I am today!

I know not of what in the future, I am going to do…

Dear Childhood, come back, I miss you!

It's raining, badluck.

Sitting by the window,

Looking out into the open…

Into the horizon..

I see the raindrops falling...

And, the beggar still begging…

But, the rain doesn’t want to stop…

And, the beggar cannot walk.

I pity the beggar who cannot do much…

And, only beg, using his one crutch.

Sitting by the window,

All I can do is wish,

That the scrawny old man doesn’t perish.

- Apurva.
