[ Part-4 ] <br /> <br />All day long <br />Like a tiny sparrow <br />On its delightful flight- <br />Running and dancing <br />You spread out <br />Cute little wings! <br />Is there not <br />That one word <br />' Weariness ' <br />In your dictionary? <br /> <br />What we reject <br />You greedily collect; <br />How worthless articles <br />Transform to gold <br />At the incident of <br />Your curious rays ? <br />Won't you part with <br />This intricate alchemistry? <br /> <br />Even disfigured dolls <br />Are decorated citizens <br />Of your kingdom of renown! <br />You please them <br />With kingly concern <br />And favour them <br />With royal service - <br />But not hesitate to punish <br />At appropriate moments! <br />These are the hallmarks <br />Of your stately reign! <br /> <br />Dolls or playthings <br />Whatever be their worth <br />Never you care- <br />Nothing in full shape <br />For not more than a day <br />Before your august court <br />You will deign to concede! <br />Only on mutilating all <br />By stamping and tearing <br />You gain your peace!<br /><br />sundaram chandrakalaadhar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/o-naughty-child-part-4/
