Sleeping Beauty

Have you ever looked at

A sleeping child?

Often we are chided from

Looking at them.

But one can’t take the

Eyes of that charming moon.

.

They smile in sleep

As though, they saw a beautiful flower,

Or probably their favourite toy.

They cry in sleep,

As though a monster came in dreams,

Or their toy was snatched.

.

They laugh out loud,

As though they are talking to friends,

Or playing with them.

Their lips and brows frown,

As though they are angry

With their friends.

.

You move closer to them,

To gaze at the lovey face,

You can see them feel

Your presence around,

And they acknowledge that

With a sweet little smile.

.

This calmness and peace,

Can be found only in children,

As they are far away from the

Maddening and demanding world,

And that makes them,

The real Sleeping Beauties.
