Happy Children’s day

The child in me plays The adult in me stops The child wants to grow up The adult want the childhood back … ❤️

Who are we What brings us together We are Memories We made together We are dreams We saw together We are Relations We forged together We are the glory We earned together We are the identity We share together We are a force to reckon When we are together
