Let me tell you about a certain someone
And in the process have some poetic fun
Who's that human, I'd reveal later
Don't be surprised, you know him/her
His/Her mornings start with a blessing
Wishing for something hopefully interesting
S/he dresses up and grabs a quick bite
Reassures that everything's all right
Sets out of home in a hurry
To ensure a life full of merry
Reaches the destination where s/he had to
Starts enacting daily chores s/he's destined to
In that sense s/he's not really unique
But, hold on, let this poem complete

Every child is a bag full of promise
An enigma whose divinity we notice
The child grows up, and what happens then
We look at him/her and start doing comparison
On the basis of figure, skin, facial features
House, car, job profile, salary structure
Every adult was once a child full of innocence
Someone we considered a mark of brilliance
The soul of adult remains unchanged
The purity in them remain unchanged
It is only our viewpoint that changes
And self-belief that slowly diminishes
You, yes you, are truly awesome
You are still an image of the one above
Being priceless is your true net worth
You are the most beautiful human on earth
