Childhood Memories

Where did they go?

Those moments were just joy

The little friends

That provided constant company

The night downpours

That made sleep tastier, so sweet

The bicycle tyre and rim rides

That made us traverse villages

The imaginary drives

In those wire cars with slipper tyres

With car sounds produced by speech organs

The home and away banana fiber ball matches

That strengthened bonds among different village players 

The race competitions

That would only be terminated by the ageing of days

The rope skipping

The banana stem drives

On slippery ant hills

The moon-lit night gatherings

Fertile grounds for "byakooko" - free activity

Assuming roles as father, mother, ....

Playing hide and seek 

Bursting into shouts of delightedness

The windy nature of approaching storms

That would fly ladies' skirts

Displaying their under sides

Where did all these go?

Where?

If time could only be rewound!
