Chinese Whispers !!

Lavender

Children getting thoroughly bored,

Gather together in the lavender household,

Discussion on what to play,

Or just sing and dance and sway.

Dumb charades or skipping,

Chinese whispers or dancing,

Hide and seek or running,

Or just sit down chit chatting…

Choices so many,

Siblings can’t seem to decide on any,

Accidentally standing and whispering words,

They finally played a game of Chinese whispers !!

We sometimes, wake up to a bright morning,

And are left with a dry sunny afternoon,

We welcome the evening gather of rain clouds above us,

To join in for a jiggle with the cool breeze and dance in the rain.

Sometimes, we wake up to a dull morning,

And be with an equally lazy afternoon,

Evening too, decides to be in the cocoon,

We just need to take it easy,

Than moping around in vain.

Some days we wake up to a cheerful morning,

And a busy packed afternoon,

An evening leads to a sudden untoward strike from life,

We need to let the truth seep in and soak the pain.

As we undertake the journey to live life,

We may experience bit of sunshine and a bit of rain,

We need to learn to be alive, before we wait to die ,

We need to enjoy with family and friends,

Than to repent later and call life a bane !!

Being Childlike..

Observing my little one for a few minutes, just set the thinking bells ringing in me…

How simple would it be, for an adult to be like a child bubbling with energy? Even though, we’ve all been through the stage of childhood, I guess, it would be next to impossible (exceptions prevail). And you would all agree with me if I describe her actions.

Watching the television, suddenly standing up, bending forward and bringing her head close to her thighs, standing, running from one end of the room to the other, dancing for a good 10-15 minutes, repeating the sequences. Phew, who needs aerobics or a zumba for a workout?!! 🙂

And of course, if we ever did manage to do some such sequences, people around us are bound to label us as crazy. It’s the thought free and innocent mind of kids which allows them the freedom to perform sans inhibition !!!
