CHILD'S PLAY

Show me those smiles little kids
You are the future of our race I believe
I envy your life of innocence
Knowledge is all but a devil's presence

I wish to be a child like you once again
Adult's life is so stressful and full of scheme
When I was young I was in a hurry to grow
Being innocent is a bliss, now I know

I got nothing to give to you but words
Something to ponder when you grow old
Be tender to kids who are at play
It their best moment in life, let them be

One day you'll see this picture you'll wonder
How I capture your innocent faces so tender
I was that guy you called "Sir Jun" 
Your friendly neighbor on vacation.
