Ingenuity

The joy in their dazzling eyes is priceless
As slipper becomes a camera; Oh
What magic they spin out of nothingness! 

Their sweet little faces are just guileless
So what if none have footwear, except one
The joy in their dazzling eyes is priceless! 

Imagination fired by heartiness
They find supreme delight in little things
What magic they spin out of nothingness! 

The lessons they often teach us are timeless
Amazing delight in their smiles and yes 
The joy in their dazzling eyes is priceless! 

Such divine pleasure it is to witness
This constant bubbling of make-believe
What magic they spin out of nothingness! 

While our moans and grievances are ceaseless
They fill their days and nights with happiness
The joy in their dazzling eyes is priceless!
What magic they spin out of nothingness!

Comment Yes, Ramesh. Their innocent joy compensates the lack of better toys and expensive stuff. There is so much for us to learn from that.

Thank you.

Comment Indeed with joy of heart, magic is created out of nothingness and the deprivation is forgotten due dazzling eyes invaluably! Joy compensates all losses in life!
