Out to PLAY

In each and every one of us….
Buried, deep down is a child
A child who likes to play
Have fun and be silly….
No matter how old we are
Thirty, forty, fifty or beyond
There is a child
Who wants to be loved, appreciated and touched
A child that never grows old
Right here, in side each of us…

It’s not a crime to let your child out
We needn’t be ashamed
To revive the child in each of us
In fact, I think it’s a shame
When we don’t do that…

Sure, as we tell ourselves…
We are adults!
We tend to neglect our inner child
We bury it with mundane tasks and endless responsibilities
Rules and regulations
And tiresome obligations
We cage our inner child
And ask it to keep quiet
“Hush!”
But why?

Every now and then
Lets take our inner child out to play
To have fun, to laugh and to make merry
Let it out and set it free ….
And see how much fun it brings to your grown self
It yearns for simple things
Just like a kid
It sees the joy and happiness
In simple things…
In dew drops and seashells
In butterflies and rainbows
In ice cream and chocolate and candy
It likes laughter and cheer
Love and affection
Humour and giggles…
Nothing fancy, nothing expensive
Nothing beyond reach
So today, let your inner child out
And let it have some fun….

Sounds silly? Try it .... you might have some fun...
