The heat will slow us down, and that is good

They know everything

When I returned up home when I was grown

The whole street seemed so small, it puzzled me

Adults need so much, we cannot see 

The richness of this tiny world forlorn.

A little child will love each stone and crack

Attention and desire are never short

Even to the sweets our pennies bought

We know our little world from front to back.

When we hurry on and do not breathe

We cannot see the world but we don’t know

On and on and on our sick brains go.

We do not lie but yet we are deceived.

The heat will slow us down we droop like flowers.

I know again my childhood, such sweet hours.
