Little people running around,

Chasing each other shrieking.

Remember being that little,

Remember the world revolving around you?

Big hopes in their little minds,

Imaginations vast but small at the same time.

A little universe around each of them,

The planets and moons forming halos.

The world, so different,

From that little height.

Emotions so intense,

Blacks and whites, no greys.

A burning curiosity,

To know, know, and know,

The need for affection,

The need to stay close.

Big ideas in their little minds,

Spectacular memories they might not remember,

Paving the way for the whole of their lives,

As they chase each other, shrieking…
