CHILDHOOD DAYS !!!

I saved it in my hands,
so tightly in my fist.
The gripping fingers let go the sand,
I watched it happen so swift.

It was my childhood,
so secure in my clinch.
As now it makes me sit and brood,
I swear i had never felt so nostalgic.

The sunny summer days,
or winter morning blues.
Remember the chirpy innocent laughter,
and the mischievous childhood plays.

With joy we made the castle of clay,
and strengthened it with love and care.
Till waves came on the shore,
We witnessed its rampage as it tore.

Ever since i learned that lesson,
and chided myself from believing in eternity.
Still today i hope audaciously,
my childhood days would touch me with serendipity.....
