As their heart
Laugh so contagious
Making you to smile
Laugh so carefree
Reminding you of your days
When you had nothing to worry
smile so sparkling
Leaving glitter in their eyes
Like those stars on the midnight sky
Don’t let them be the object of internet ,media and market
At least for now keep them away from your gadgets
Don’t let them get trapped in the idea of perfect
Help them to realize
They are amazing
The way they are born
They don’t need to fit in any form
put away those PS
you bought Last week
To mend up for that trip with them, you missed
Take them outdoor to show
those butterflies in your garden
Tell them to make friends not by sitting behind the screens
But by taking the stroll on the streets
Don’t teach them to stay away from those street children
I Know your concern as a parent
But please for a while let them stay innocent
Lets not teach them to judge
Let their eyes look everyone equally
Before they get to understand the differences by the society norms
don’t snatch away their whole day by overburdening them with homeworks
And then with extra curricular activities
And what not, just to make them perfect
Just let them do whatever is their interest
Let them steal the childhood days as much as they can
Let them have those bruised knees and dirty clothes
Before the adulthood strikes
And give them the gift of broken heart and broken dreams
where there is only rat race ,peer pressure and targets
There is a competetion even to enjoy life
Who is having more parties and drinks
Who is posting more pictures from the last trips,
Till then atleast
let them run to the end of street
to that puddles
Where you had your favourite game
wrestling in the mud with your best friend
Where you left your childhood
Where the innocence still resides
Let them stay innocent for a while

I meet too many parents who are in a hurry to have their child grow up. They miss so much of the valuable learning that happens out of innocent abandonment. Well said

I agree with this poem. I have noticed that as soon as children are out of diapers, they are into as many commitments as adults are. My sister was doing some sport by the time she was three. I am very proud of her and everything, but I was glad that my mother didn’t make me do all kinds of crazy commitments until I was like… eight years old. I am very blessed to have had that innocence because at least we know how to relax and to let ourselves blossom into what we were meant to be. This poem resonates very much with how I have been feeling about how there is basically no childhood anymore.
When I have children, I want them to have a childhood and to be able to see beauty when they go outside, find something to play with outside, and to even enjoy spending time with animals. I would never make my child do a commitment that would make them miserable. Happiness is something in short stock, so I always try to bring out as much happiness as I can.

Very Beautiful Meaningful Poem. Advising Parents to Allow their Children to Stay Innocent and Enjoy their Childhood days, before they grow up.
Yes, make your kids, put away those screens, there is still time for that. Make them run about with the football, play climbing trees, swim in the water, make muddy puddles. Don’t fret on them.
Remember they will VALUE YOU FOR GIVING THEM A GOOD NORMAL CHILDHOOD, when they grow up.
