Eliza's Topsy-Turvy Children's Day

On June the First, a special date, When children worldwide celebrate, Tati told Eliza with great glee, "It's Children's Day! How lucky we'll be!"

But Eliza just gave a puzzled look, As if Tati spoke from a strange, foreign book. "Dress up? Get presents? Go for a walk? Why today?" she seemed to balk.

Tati explained with patience true, "It's your day, Eliza, through and through!" But our clever girl, with a mischievous grin, Changed the subject with a funny spin.

She giggled and played, as on any day, While Tati kept trying to have his say. "It's special!" he'd cry, "Let's celebrate!" But Eliza's interest just wouldn't inflate.

As she prepared to leave with Mum, Tati thought the day would be humdrum. But then Eliza, with eyes so bright, Gave Tati a gift - oh, what a sight!

A drawing she'd made, with love and care, For Tati on Children's Day, so fair! For in Eliza's world, so sweet and true, Giving joy to others was the best thing to do.

Tati learned that day, with a heart full of pride, That in Eliza's love, real celebration resides. Not in presents or parties or dressing up neat, But in sharing happiness - now that's a treat!

So remember, dear readers, as you grow, Like Eliza, let your kindness show. For the truest joy, as you'll come to see, Is in making others happy as can be!
