We will miss you

From Prakriya you are graduating
Going to 11th grade is an important thing

You leaving from Prakriya will be sad
I hope you don't feel too bad

I hope there are trees here and there
In your new school, greenery should be everywhere

Study well I hope you do
We will certainly miss you

Pigs are pretty, not dirty

I love pigs
They look very pretty
And pigs are not
Animals that are dirty

Pigs normally roll in the mud
But now they role in the drain
Pigs naturally eat food
Like carrots and grains

The pigs role in the drain
Because finding mud is tough
Nowadays there are only buildings
And the pigs have had enough

Now carrots and grains
Are not available everywhere
But now there is rubbish
Always here are there

So please don't litter
It is really sad
That we are changing the pigs life
And that is really bad

Let's save the earth

Save the nature immediately
Our earth has lost all it’s beauty
We cut down all the plants and trees
Only for our wants not needs

Let us save the earth so that
Our children will have a life worth
Living in nature
Will give them lot of pleasure

We have to say
That I will play
A role in saving the earth
Let’s save the earth!

Who is this Monster!

I was so happy
that I shouted Yippee!
Someone said yippee again
and they copied me!

Is it a Monster?
Or, is it my brother?
Is it a ghost?
Or, is it my mother?

Whatever it is,
it is very scary
It might be a beast
which is enormous and hairy

I told my mother
she said she knows
who the monster is
It was Mr.Echo!

Bloody Red Lunar Eclipse

7:20 I am seeing the Lunar Eclipse

I am seeing the eclipse
It is very beautiful
The red colour
Looks so wonderful!

One side is red,
Black is the other
In the middle
It’s the blend of colours

Now it is red
But normally white
Now it is dim
But normally bright

It is very dim
Because of pollution!
Not making any pollution,
Is the only solution!

The Moon is awesome
The Moon is pretty
The Moon is spectacular
And Red very very!

7:45   The lunar eclipse after 25 minutes

The Moon was red
Now one corner is white
Before, the whole was dim
Now, one corner is bright

The eclipse is going
And the white is coming
It still looks beautiful
And like a pretty ring

Oh! Look at the Moon
The white has increased
And the pretty red part
Has certainly decreased

Oh! When will I
Probably see
The next lunar eclipse
Next month maybe!

8:02 The eclipse is going away

Now the moon
Is almost half white
The poor red part
Is not at all Bright

The moon is still amazing
But the red part
Is almost black and
can be good to draw in art

Just One hour ago
To the eclipse, I said hi
But now it’s going away
I will have to say, Bye!

8:24 The red portion is gone!

The Moon’s white portion
Has come out of the Eclipse
The Moon will be white
Completely now soon!

The pretty lunar eclipse
Is going to end
I hope I have become
The eclipse’s close friend

The awesome lunar eclipse
Is now almost done
When the eclipse was going on
I hope you had fun

8:40 The eclipse is gone

Now the wonderful moon
Has turned completely white
And is now very
Pretty and bright!

The eclipse is gone
Our moon is now a full moon
I felt the eclipse
Went away so soon

The lunar eclipse was stupendous
And is now done
The eclipse was spectacular
I hope you had fun!

Jealousy

When my friend went on a merry-go-round
My jealousy knew no bounds

When she came to me to say
Hey! Isn’t it a lovely day?
Very rudely I would reply
And that would end up making her cry

Then one day, she came to me
And I told her don’t you see
With you, I don’t want to talk
Nor do I want to walk
With you, I will not play
So please just go away

Without a word she went away
But then I got to know, it was her birthday

All because of my Jealousy
I wasn’t invited to her Party!

light the candle


When I was robbed

When I was robbed,
I picked up the telephone
And complained to the police
In a very angry tone.

The very next day
The police caught the felon.
I thought the only place
Meant for him is prison.

He was called to the court
And I was delighted.
But things did not go
As I had expected

That wicked robber
Was granted bail
When I thought
He was going to jail!!!

Said the Table to the Bear

Said the Table to the Bear,
I hope you are aware
Every day I get very bored
Oh! I wish I could walk on the road.

Oh! But my dear Table,
On you always there’s an Aesop’s Fable
Why don’t you read it all day?
From Sunday to Saturday.

Oh well Bear! I have read
How many times! That’s hundred!
Bored I get every day!
Give me a solution,
I’ll do as you say.

If you get bored every day,
Together we can play,
Then you will be happy
Oh Table! You will smile with glee.

Well Bear, what can we play?
I stay hear all day!
I hope you know, I can’t run
So, playing with me will not be fun!

Well Table, Aren’t you brainy!
Why can’t we play Anthakshari?

Then the Table never complained
And Anthakshari they always played.

You are my Lovely Dad!

You always make me happy
You never make me sad
And that is all because
You are my lovely Dad!

Oh! Can you remember
The happy moments we have shared
And that is all because
You are my lovely Dad!

I love all your jokes
They always make me glad
And that is all because
You are my lovely Dad!


You are my lovely Dad! (3)

If I were a Kite

If I were a Kite
I would sore to great heights
Even if I touch the sky
I will still continue my flight

I will meet all the birds
And tell them Hi
But still I will continue
to go high and high

Everyone will admire
My beautiful tail
And here I am
in the sky, I sail

I will fly
near the Sun
And while I fly
I would have, lot of fun.

When we went to Goa

When we went to Goa
We collected many shells
We collected so many shells
That it is more than we can tell!

In the beaches we played
I felt very happy
Whenever a wave came
I would shout Yippee!

We went to the churches
And walked in the Sun
Seeing the idols
Was lot of fun

I enjoyed the seafood
Especially the squid
And, in the ice cream shop
You know what we did!!!
