Being a child was so awesome
Starting from the normal routine
of wake,eat and sleep
Then to building houses with sand
Acting drama with mates
Being the dad and mum of imaginable kids
cooking with sand and cooking sand
Wasting our bathing water
Licking toothpaste
Being forced to go to school amidst tears
Forsaking hundreds of naira
Because the number of tens are much more
oh how foolish of us
These elders need to pay us back
We were our mummy's favourite
Not until a younger sis appear.
