The child innocently smiles

The child innocently smiles 

Brightening surroundings with purity of the newborn
Clueless of the challenges Great Chinese wall
Of long distance running without moment of repose

What could be more perfect in this imperfect world
More innocent in sea of unvirtuous criminality
More shiny , positive amidst the gloomy storms on life
Giving the hope for fairytale happy end in return

He smiles at you without parent's nudging
The natural instinct is kicking in , no need to push
Can't help but smile back appearing like a rainbow
Transferring mood to better place

Look , learn from the little baby
Something is lost along the way while striving to survive
You certainly forgot the simple things , the joy of laughing
Without any reason, without forcing to pretend to be one with crowd.. the matriculation start anew when realization comes to light

I wish that smile never fade, becoming shadow
Becoming tears of lost, the fear in the eyes
