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.
