Let a Man be Childlike Naive
If a man humane is that he ought be, Maybe, his grit’s grounded by child's good grace, Or his contented heart’s always happy, Perchance, he wears a child's innocent face.

Little Shelves in Quiet Minds
Little shelves in quiet minds Hold unimagined worlds. Night-time spurs their playtime jaunts. By dawn, a tale reshelves. At times, these tales may reappear To flirt with daytime ponder. If thoughts of ponder dare to shift, A soul may act on a wonder. And Fortune, guide a happy soul, Who wears the wonder born Of ponderings...

Childlike Love
Mercy dragged fate around our alley, a path taken before, failed, but who cares ? two lucky losers, who determined the ending, in the precipice of nothing. you and I were children in the world, non-existent in love stories, to keep you crouched, easier for me unaffected by the flow of gossip. Satiety in you Time never promised, my being enjoyed you even in sleep. But, the...

What is that? I asked staring into the rainbow mist. There was movement, and it was coming hard and fast. Others did not see, but I ran toward the rainbow. Determined to see what I thought I saw. No one ran after me; people consider me strange. Pixies, elves, faeries and a leprechaun greeted me. Where are the others? The leprechaun...

There is a childlike quality Between the two contenders Who vie for the biggest portion The wish that will come true The win that provides anew Second chances, rosy romances Heartfelt enlightenment, delight Within the one who competes For the wishbone’s big dream!

We must always keep in mind that Jesus said, “[Let] the little children come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such are the kingdom of heaven.” This makes me believe that we must inculcate the quality of childlikeness if we are going to be worthy...
