Flag

A little boy of Bangladesh celebrates The Victory Day of his nation on 16 December 2013

I met the little boy on the street

He was running with a flag in his hand

He was following  the colorful musical band

His little flag seemed to dance and greet

The boy told me,see the Victory Day

Showing the paper flag glued to a stick

His point was simple yet very symbolic

He enjoyed the festivity in his play 

He insisted me to go with him for fun

He craved to join the running children

He didn't want to miss the joyful run

Waving  flag with  music was his  heaven

I was spellbound and ran fast with him

The boy became  happy winning his dream

where I come from, a flag and child image in poetry is very famous. It doesn't only spread joy to the reader but also symbolizes freedom. and that no matter where life takes us there will be a time for us to behave as children and free ourselves from our daily routines and enjoy the moment like innocent little children playing in the park dreaming a great tomorrow
