SILENCE
Silence is the soul of life
You can achieve anything with silence
Silence is the simplest to speak
It’s a language that everyone knows and understands

Silence is the clean and clear path to success
Silence relieves you
Silence gives you peace
Silence is the greatest value

It is the best virtue
Before a storm, there is silence
Before a surprise, there is silence
Silence is nothing
Silence is everything

With the induction of silence
you are complete
So, friends.... Shhh... Be silent!!!

Nuhar Bansal,

Nature
When you look at nature,
You can see the future
When you look at the sky,
You can see a pretty butterfly

Our time is full of pleasure,
Where we live in leisure,
and in our mind there is a pretty picture
Of the blue skies and silver streams,
Where there are no cries and screams

Nature - gift of God
As the morning dawns
and the sunshine falls on my lawn,
I get up from my bed,
sit and yawn,

Near the window I see a nest,
the birds look so cosy and warm
The dew drops shine like pearls,
and everything seems so calm

Nature is so beautiful, and its so wonderful
to be blessed with this life,
and to be so alive

The battlefield
In neat little rows,
Heads bent in unison,
A sea of students,
labour under watchful eyes.
Here and there, like
Ripples on calm water,
A head or two looks up,
And around, and then quickly back down.

Like waves in fluid motion,
The steady rhythm of pen on paper
Punctuated by small, timid
whimpers of fear.
The subtly electric breeze,
Whips around gleefully,
Playing with loose sheets
of light, white paper.

For hours that seem like centuries,
They labour on, ignoring the beads of sweat
on their glistening foreheads and
brushing off their mounting aches. 
Pushing away that beckoning hand

Of sweet, sweet slumber,
Fighting the spirit of exhaustion,
The Brave Ones plod on.
And then, like a mighty wave,
They all rise as one, in triumph,
Having completed their charge,
Rushing towards the bank of freedom -
into the bright sunshine.

Sadness
Rolling from the eyes come tears,
Symbol of sadness it shows,
A time when the heart’s on fire,
A time when sad feelings rise higher;

A time when you feel life’s useless,
A time when you want to cry
A time when you want to say good bye
Yes, that’s life, you can’t do anything,

All you can do is just one thing,
Wait a second and think,
Because of laughter, you would get all pink.

Morning  magic
At 6 O’clock its so very dark,
You cannot see a tiny mark

At 7 O’clock the sun comes up,
Time to drink from my lovely cup.

At 8 O’clock its so very bright,
Every where it is full of light.

At 9 O’clock its off to school,
No time for children to play in the pool.

At 10 O’clock all mothers are free,
They can happily watch TV.

At 11 O’clock its off to the kitchen,
Time to make some tasty chicken.

At 12 O’clock the lunch is ready,
Let’s eat lunch get ready and steady.
