Childhood Is Now Understood

Dear childhood friends,

For you I deeply pray
In the truly best way
To ever win every day
And peacefully stay

Your joy must multiply
For you God must reply
For which prayer I apply
And best wishes I supply

My memories are thick
Which I could pick
As my mind they lick
They never at all prick

They are all golden memories
They cancel totally worries
You all behaved like breeze
Giving shade like cool trees

Every moment of those days
Gives to my mind divine grace
I still remember that holy place
So that mirth I can easily trace

I was afraid of your handsome father
And viewed as great your mother
A really wonderful sister and brother
Creating together a pleasant weather

When I was staying in that street
Life was fine, joyful and sweet
Afterward only loss and defeat
Only sorrow I started to meet

After getting away from you all
I faced in life continuous fall
What a pal giving a loving call!
I see him only in cricket ball

I may be now an outstanding poet
But, that day can never be met
That was the happiest time I bet
Again that peace I can never get

I wish you all a happy New Year
Let prosperity give you all cheer
Kindly take care your health dear
God will dry all your tear and fear.

With best wishes,

Yours cordially,

M V VENKATARAMAN (RAMU)
