The Little Girl in Memory Lane

As I walk into my memory lane,
Flipping pages of reminiscence chain,
Stopped in awe, froze did I ?
Looking at me, I questioned why!

A young free soul, roamed in joy did she?
In her tiny world laughed in glee,
Splashes of paint and colors all,
Those childhood days as I recall!

Like flowers that bloomed in spring light,
Filled with love, was her smile bright,
No fret, or distress nor concerned was she,
The little girl in my memory I see....

I wonder why & where'd she go?
Took with her the joyous glow
In souvenir of thoughts she stood so tall,
Once again to become her I'd give my all....
