Ocean looks still outside
But its tale differs inside
Swan looks clam outside
But under water its not so
Why is it so? Asked one kid
Few icebergs look tiny outside
But they are huge inside water
Skin of humans varies outside
But color of blood inside is same
Why is it so? He asked me again
Coconut is too hard outside
Tell is it the same inside too?
Many tell many things outside
Tell me are the same inside too?
He asked me looking into eyes
I smiled at his eyes and said
For eyes you look like a kid
But are you the same inside?
For eyes I am older then you
But is it true inside? I asked him
