Children (Ghazal)

Random Thoughts

Learn to crawl and learn to walk

To stand yourself up against a table



Crying and laughing,

Riding a three-wheeled bike



Going to school and reading books

Coloring to math, to shakespeare



And the real world opens her doors

Encasing you in decision and a million paths



Learning to crawl and learning to step forward

Feeding and laughing and buying high-chairs



Laughing and crying,

With coloring books and toys



Santa claus and Easter bunny

To geometry and calculus



The road to decision

And learning to walk and crawl again...
