STEALS THE HEART

 STEALS THE HEART

When you miss your son, daughter,
Seen lost happiness and laughter,
Alone in the confined home, lonely,
Why forget that children are happy only. (1)

Crying the morn shedding its tears,
The dew acts as a conspirator; it wears.
Panoramic spectral hues due to share,
Ever you roll on the grass, be aware? (2)

Chicks of yesteryears select the forest,
Built their nest on branches attest,
A dawn sunlight in brilliance invites,
Your kids are playing, visits excite, (3)

Miserable attitude, time steals all.
Surely return once time heals, call,
The love you dear adore infinitely,
A mind troubled plays deliberately, (4)

Sick, wakeful nights thoughts link,
Attachment love permanent wink,
The sunshine brings hope, a message,
Lush green leaves, flower essays, (5)

Little kids are playing, giggling,
Touch them, please escape, wriggle,
Behind you, I watch your laughter,
Opened your heart and feel better, (6)

Life is love to meet and miss well,
Children, their voices exist, prevail,
They danced in the rain and got a fever,
Cold winter under blankets, shiver, (7)

Summer time, their parched lips,
Brilliant morning, a heart weeps,
No more tension, watchful hours,
Steals the heart, dear love showers (viii)
