Every one had
his own special childhood that is gone forever. When it comes to our passed
childhood, we will remind of those small interesting toys, such as artificial
rattle snake, toy bricks, drum-shape rattle and jumping frog clockwork.
Actually, jumping frog clockwork accompanied me to spend most of my childhood
and had great influence in my life when I was a small and naughty kid.
A frog,
clockwork toy, was winded up jumping around cheerfully. He was unware of his
destiny which would be abandoned by his owner who do not want him any more.
A seven-year-old
boy who lived next door had a large quantities of new funny toys. He gave me an
old clockwork frog and a harmonica. The clockwork frog was green in color and
the harmonica was yellow. I loved them so much. Consequently, I almost fell in
love with the ugly boy who was born in a wealthy family.
The toys changed
hands and regained love from their new owner. I wrapped the handkerchief around
them to keep them free from dust. At than time, I always carried them with me
when I went outside. I showed then to my good friends, whom I would run into on
the way. With much compliments from my friends, I was quite satisfied with my
luckiness of having the toys.
Now sitting in a
corner of Karaoke Bar, the green clockwork toy reminded me of my childhood. I
was wondering whether the toys got a feeling or not. If they could feel and
think, they must know that a five-year-old girl treated them much better than
that ugly boy.
At the stage, my
friend, a beauty, was singing an old popular song that used to be. I held a
glass of icy beer in my hand and put it onto my burning cheeks, listening to
her silently. Facing up the real world, every one in their own place plays a
major role which seems to be unimportant in others’ eyes.
The jumping frog
clockwork was missing a long time ago, and the pleasant memories about it faded
out slowly as time went by.
