Smile and the world smiles with you!! :)


For all the children, whose minds are so pure, thoughts are so fresh...
For all the mother's whose brains get refreshed
every second, thanks to the lovely children


For all the grandparents whose childhood
springs to life, at the very sight
of the children flitting across like butterflies!


For the influences, that scatter across the world,
the media, the cartoons,
the much misunderstood computer games
The never cease to amaze, playstations, gameboys...


They make my child smile, they make my child run
I thank the influences, without which
i'd have no stories to spin


Every evening while I wait
for that moment, when the van gets into the gate
I search amidst dirty faces, and browned hands


The most wonderful sight
The sight of that one lovely smile
The grin that tells me to forget
the bad that went by and look forward
to the most amazing of all creation
CHILDHOOD!!!


This i'd like to say and wish


HaPPy ChILbrEN'S D a Y!!!

save that child in you...its far more precious!!
And just to bring back some childhood memories, and for all those who might not have seen this
Must watch

Its so sad that as an adult we forget the child in us. These kind of videos help us to keep the child alive. Wonderful video.
