The problem with children
Is that they are too easily pleased
The monochrome boredom of everyday life
Turns swiftly into a colourful extravaganza  
As the mind-numbing and the mundane
Become the mind-blowing and the magnificent

Children have the gift of fantasy
Of carelessness and of hope
They add the extra to the ordinary
With long lost magic by their side.

The problem with adults
Is that they are never easily pleased
The monochrome and monotone
Become an excessive focus
As the mind-numbing and the mundane
Blow away the mind-blowing and the magnificent

Adults sacrificed the gift of fantasy
And seek the companionship of reality
Of money and of responsibility
With long lost magic on their minds.
