Squid On My Lid

In a world speckled with squids, a peculiar yet common sight,
A young child awakens, finding one atop with delight.
Not just a strange creature, but a symbol of inner chatter,
Representing worries, whims, and emotional clatter.

As daylight breaks, from home to the school’s vibrant scene,
Each child adorned with a squid, a spectacle serene.
But in this tale, the child learns a vital art,
Of staying present, letting go, playing a healthy part.

As the sun sets, a realization gently dawns,
The power to release, to heal, to respond to life’s fawns.
Supported by friends, by love that never forbids,
The child learns to thrive, beyond the squids.

“Squid on My Lid,” not just a tale, but a healing balm,
A reminder that in connection and presence, there’s a calming calm.
Letting go of burdens, embracing each new day with cheer,
This story teaches us to love, to live, sans any fear.
