‘Beware of the dumping place!’

(Watch out when you deal with kids!)

Unwritten I was, when mom eased off;

A clean slate that was, and innocence a lot;

 ‘Spotlessly clean’, a mind that was

Where everyone could carelessly write on!

            The first word I spoke, I couldn’t recall;

            What I uttered, my son spoke off

            Called her ‘Ma’ and toddled her round

            And never bothered to be off her feet.

When I got off my mom’s warm lap

The words of world, I sloppily picked up

The flood gate opened; as

Good and bad, simultaneously got in.

            I got dumped, and my mind trespassed;

            ‘So innocent a mind’ no one dared to care;

            All they longed, was just a dump;

            A place to dump ‘The Garbage of Sin’.

No matter how innocent I was,

Damn they cared as they trespassed;

Never had I known, how I got spoiled,

As I thought of pleasures of life.

            Oh! You Men! You quote no excuse,

            See that you make no mistake;

            When you handle the tiny tots,

            And write on their ‘Unwritten Slates’.
