Examination

The examination is near
We are set on fire
No more cricket here
Father makes it clear
Cartoons banned forever
was mother’s word
Why does this blessed summer
give us only horror?

India

India is my country
why should I worry?
Though we are so many
Differences we have not many
Little hearts we gather
To tell these words of prayer

My Sweet Birthday

On a sweet morning in my room
I found flowers gifted to,
They were pretty and they bloomed
I got ready with a dress that was very pretty
The weather was cloudy
at night we were all together
to celebrate my beautiful party
We sang a song at the end
I slept through a beautiful night
With the moonlight shining just for me

Thank God

You must thank God because
He gave you a heart and a family
Pray to God everytime because
he gave you a nice school
Be kind to God. He is watching
over you
He loves you
YOu must also love him
Has God made the world, animals and us?
Ask God but kindly.

Headache! Headache! Headache!

A throb in the head,
A pounding of the eyes
Draws you to bed,
He comes and goes at his will,
Creeps into your poor head
With not a warning, so still.
Then a headache! Headache!
You toss and turn
Shaking off the pain.
Then your head begins to burn,
A headache! Headache!

A convenient disease
It comes and vanishes
as quick as a wink. You never know,
It’ll slip out silently

Headache, headache, headache
A universal affliction.
Invading all minds.
Truly painful, (partly fiction)

Sadarchita Prasad

No trees, no bees!

In our houses there are backyards,
    But they look like graveyards!
If there are no trees,
    There will be no more bees!
If there are no more bees,
    There will be no more honey!
If there is no more honey,
    There will not be a sweet life with money!
Save the area,
    And prevent from spreading malaria!
Let us get rid of garbage,
    And instead grow cabbage!
Stop trying to laze,
    Then your mind will be a maze!
Help others to keep clean your house,
    And also get rid of the mouse!
Stop taking the car for a short distance,
    And walk for an instance!
Stop using chemical matter,
    For you will find the same thing on your platter!
Follow the environmental rules,
    And stop being stubborn mules!
Stop making mother earth feel sad,
    For it is a crime too bad!
The ozone layer is beginning to thin,
    Soon the ultra violet rays will begin to burn our skin!
If you stop polluting the earth, people will chant "east or west
    Our earth is the best!"
