Fading



AS THE UNITED NATIONS WILL HELP SPREAD THIS MESSAGE TO THE PARENTS IN ASIA, AFRICA, EUROPE, ANTARTICA, OCEANIA AND THE PARENTS IN AMERICA.

When I hear children chattering,
I'd like to think they are together.
The sun flaunts out bright, the moon and the wind,
As the chirps of crickets gives pleasure to our inner ears.
Hilariously we flowed together,
CAREFUL! Anthem from our mothers can stops us not.
We were amused in our ways.
Our bad attitudes ignites us to be punished by our mothers and fathers.
Meals are served from differently from different kitchens,
Just like street beggars having meals from different home;
But still!
We enjoyed them.
We got to fight each other at times but never got crashed.
Do we clicked back because we were kids?
This is our source.


I’d like to get away from earth awhile and begin over.
God forbid my fate snatch me away not to return.
Earth's right place for love
I don’t know where it’s likely to go better,
I'd like to go by the days of our tender ages and begin over with mates.

Meanwhile, here on earth the place we can only love,
How do we build love on earth if only one way is accepted?
The ways of old is not longer accepted,
Parent only camp children hoping to build scholars,
How come they’re becoming more dullards?
As love is fading away.
Funfair isn’t the natural way.
Their chuckles don’t  fraternize with the chirps of crickets anymore.
But may no fate misunderstand me,
I am not saying children should be too playful.
For what’s dividing us is so much greater than what’s keeping us together,
How can we bring it back?
And begin to plant love even as much stronger than our accents.

About this poem

The poem has no rhyms and rhythm though, but when you keep a look at it and understand it. It has compared how our fathers are being brought up to parents are bringing up children nowadays. When we compare them, children of nowadays understand and believe NO MONEY NO LOVE. The natural love is really fading away sincerely. How I wish this message go viral and the UN admit this so, they introduce to the parents so they keep the children natural. Funfair, children day and other get together have a different role to play
