  • there is always a reason for things to happen the way it does, although we do not necessarily understand it ....

At the sprinklers

They are jumping up and down like a yoyo

The energy emanated so incredible….

Their little feet stepping, splashing, you know

The joy and grin on their faces so amusable.

 

Suddenly, a seagull sores with the wind,

And their attention gets readjusted.

In its beck, clinched a piece of tamarind

And its majestic glide keeps them captivated.

 

It doesn’t take too long before change of scenery,

And they discover an army of red ants

Marching, it seems, as an act of bravery,

In the middle of wet T-shirts and pants!

 

Always wanting more thrill and enjoyment,

They run …spleash, splash and run again.

Before hearing the announcement :

“It’s time to go and catch our train!”

Sounds like a wonderful day spent with children. And I'm sure you got objections when you announced it was time to go.

Definitely a very enjoyable time... and yes, it was not easy to leave so soon... Thank you for your review gentle T - Salam

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
