Solitude.

                                                                

She walks into the park with gleaming eyes

Bouncing on her little feet

And in the very corner, she sees

A rusted red swing creak.

She takes her seat on the rickety swing,

On her face a curious grin,

With the swing,she soars into the clouds

And thus, their adventures begin.

But she’s getting older now,

Moments in the park are fleeting and rare,

As busy thoughts entrap her mind, she can no longer

Swing without a care.

She looks back with teary eyes,

Her childhood now subdued,

The old red swing, once again

Creaks in solitude.

We Rise by Lifting Others...

Hi everyone,

I just happened to stumble across my blog today, and realized how much I miss writing! I decided to write something a little different today.

As a high school student, bullying is something I witness quite often. It’s so disheartening to see people spreading hate and negativity rather than being nice to one another (it isn’t that hard!). So I tried writing something along those lines, hope you enjoy it!

-------------------

We are absolutely blessed to have people in our lives who make us happy, and serve as constant reminders that we are loved. So why do we so often forget to love and spread happiness? It is the ugly truth that as our brains are expanding into newfound realms of innovation and technology, our hearts are disappearing. Day by day, we are forgetting what made humans so special in the first place- their inherent ability to be good to others. In the end, no one is going to remember us by the measure of flashy cars we owned, but rather the measure of integrity, generosity goodness in our hearts.

We can all try to be the sunshine on someone’s rainy day, because happiness is the one thing which you gain more of the more you give away. So give someone a smile on your way to work or school, keep reminding your parents how grateful you are to them,visit an orphanage or even a dog shelter once in a while. Call your old friends just to ask them how they are, or clean up your room without your mum telling you to!

Because it’s the little things that occupy the biggest spaces in our hearts.

MOM....

Here's a late mothers day poem for all the great moms out there!!!

"Wake up!" she says on a Monday morning
I reply sleepily"But it's not fair!"
"I never said it would be " says mum angrily
" Now brush your teeth and comb your hair!"

" Mum, just two minutes more" I grumble
" Out you get"she weirdly growls
" But I don't want to go to school" I mumble
" KAVYA! OUT! " she loudly howls

Though she tries to wake me up when I don't want to
And pesters me to pick up my clothes and socks
She's far by the best mum ever
And I'm telling you she rocks!!!

Prehistoric adventure

I can see the dinosaurs
Stretching out their intimidating claws

And the Kohinoor diamond golden-brown
Glistening on Victoria's crown

Woah! There is the world's oldest book!
To write it I wonder how long it took

And there's a spear, the oldest tool
To me early humans are pretty cool

It was totally epic to visit the past
I saw loads of stuff and had a blast

OK, if you got fooled stop wondering that this is so awesome
Cause all I did was took a trip to the museum!!

A Perfect Day!

Not every day's a great one,
But if i had my way
My parents wouldn't scold me
And I would play all day

I'd sleep for half the morning
And wake at only ten
I'd have donuts for breakfast
Then I'd sleep again

I'd wake up at eleven
And then I'd call my friends
Then we'd play or probably chat
About the latest trends

I'd have the best lunch ever
Probably at one
And I'd have the chocolate ice cream
After I am done

And when my mom's not looking
I'd steal her cupboard key
I'd open the candy drawer
And eat all of them with glee

I wouldn't have to study
And there would be no school
All I'd do is play my sports
And that would be so cool

I'd sleep past my bedtime
Which is only nine
I'd eat ice cream again
And that would be divine.

In my perfect day
I would have a blast
But as the adults always say
Nothing's meant to last 

The Dog Across The Street

There's a new dog called Buster
He lives across the street
Hes always very hungry
And pleads for things to eat

Buster and his owner come to my house and say
I don't mean to be rude
But if you don't mind,
Could you spare some food?

I tell them this is the third time they are asking
And we are running out of snacks
Why don't they just ask Vicky
Who lives right around the back

Then they put on an innocent face
That annoyed me to the core
Please, just a little they plead
We wont ask for any more!

I trudge up the stairs
To go and tell my mom
And by the time I come down, they've left
And all the candy is gone!!!

If I were god

If I were god

Heres what I would do

Tigers would baa

And cows wouldn’t moo

If I were god

There would be no school

We would have dragons as pets

And that would be cool

If I were god

Salad wouldn’t be healthy

The poorest of the poor

Would be extremely wealthy

If I were god

Trees would be made out of gold

Flowers from silver

No one would grow old

If I were god

Everyone would be a child

And go out to play

With a big glowing smile

If I were god

The world would change

Even if It was really strange!

MANGALYAAN

ISRO had such a big achievement

Read this poem if you are in agreement!

The mangalyaan, an Indian satellite

Was launched on November 5^th when it took its first flight

And it took almost a year! Well that was long

Many people thought it would fail but they were all wrong

For on the glorious day on the 24^th September

It was a mind blowing day that you have to remember!

The satellite finally landed in the orbit of mars

I hereby declare our ISRO scientists superstars!

THE TUNNEL

In the corner of the garden,

Is a great big hole,

I will tell you it’s secret,

But its never to be told,

When you peek in there

It will make you quiver

It is just so freezing cold

It will give you a shiver

Keep going in

It is silent and so dark

Until you get to the middle,

You see lights and a gigantic spark

Then here is what you see

Trees of silver and flowers of gold,

And all sorts of creatures

Who will never grow old

And guess how well

They use their bins?

Every piece of garbage

Has to go in

They don’t know paper!

They don’t know plastic

Their planet is so fresh and clean

So mindblowing and fantastic

They really love their world

They look after their resources well,

Unlike our earth which will soon be

A living hell

Just a little effort

To keep our earth clean

And then we could really

Go green!

If you ever forget

What you should do

Remember the secret of the tunnel

Which I told you!

AMBIDEXTROUS

Once I had a fracture

On my right arm,

I could not write at all

But I still kept calm.

Then it was just “EUREKA!”

I thought, an idea, I will do

Why not become ambidextrous?

And then I could write with my left hand too!

At first my left hand writing was terrible!

Letters that even I couldn’t understand,

I sighed and said to myself

“This isn’t what I’ve planned!”

I tried again but nothing seemed to work

I groaned inwardly,

But practice makes a man perfect

I wasn’t going to give up so easily!

I practiced and practiced

And practiced again

But how much ever I tried

My efforts were in vain

I’m still not exactly ambidextrous

I still can’t write a little word like cry!

But if you ever get a fracture

It’s definitely worth a try!

Books, Books and Books

Whether it’s Roman mystery

Or Irish history

Whether it’s about a princess

Or captain hook

All you need to entertain

Is any old book!

It could be big

It could be small

It could be short

It could be tall

They take you around the world without you leaving your chair

Yes books can take you everywhere!

The second world war

Or fairyland

The tallest mountain

Or deserts of sand

While boys read all about avengers

And girls of ofcourse – fairy adventure!

But anyway, all the same

Never judge a book by its cover or name!

                                                     

So remember however good or bad the cover page may look,

It will promisingly take you into a spectacular book!

THE HUNGER GAMES

I recently finished reading a book called the hunger games. I liked it so much that I decided to write a poem about it! Hope you read the poem and decide to read the book too!


The hunger games, an amazing book

I,m telling you, you should take a look!

Katniss Everdeen the girl on fire

Shone like a blue sapphire

She fought hard for fortune and fame

In the end she won the game

She really did amaze the crowd

Her district and supporters were very proud

Her mum and sister watched the games all day

Hoping for the best, they would always pray

And when she won

Everyone was stunned

She stood with all her glory

And that is the hunger games story!! 

The wolf friend

This is a poem that is dedicated to the grey wolves. They are beautiful creatures but are sadly endangered due to major habitat loss. I was inspired by the species and their qualities so i decided to write this poem just for them....

I saw him creeping in the moonlight

Eyes shining ever so bright

His coat was very slick

It was a light grey and was very thick

On chilly nights we always huddle

And I always give him warm cuddles

And even though he is just a wild animal

He is always my best friend and is so cuddly and lovable         

As I catch a last glimpse of him howling at the moon

I know I will see him again soon

As I see the daylight coming I leave him with sorrow

But I know I can see my baby wolf friend at midnight tomorrow!!

The Flamenco Dancer

Flamenco is a Spanish Folk dance from southern spain (Andalucia region) - I had a chance to watch this during my recent trip to Spain and was speechless after watching the wonderful dancing... Here is a little poem on the Flamenco dancer

She held herself with style

And had a lovely charming smile

She clicked her fingers and tapped her feet

She shook her hips to the beat

She twirled around with flair

And had a big red flower in her hair

She had a frilly black skirt

And a bright red shirt

She lifted her skirt and twirled around

She clapped her hands and stomped on the ground

Her dance was amazing

That no-one could help gazing!

 The audience was just astounded

And I was completely dumbfounded!!!

THE SEASONS FAIRY

It was a chilly night in winter

Almost time for spring

 It was then that I saw the season fairy

I saw her creeping in

She lifted up her hands

And used her magic powers

She turned all the drooping plants

Into fragrant blossoms and flowers!

She woke up all the bears and squirrels

From their hibernation

I could not believe my eyes

It was such a huge fascination

She turned the angry blizzard

Into a relaxing, cool breeze

She grew mouth-watering fruits

On the snow topped trees

It was then that she had to go

I really would miss her

But I knew that she would be back

Just in time for summer!

I LOVE SPRING!

A LOVING FAMILY

A loving family is full of kind and thoughtful people

Who think the world about you

They are all very unique

Like your family, there are very few!

They help you overcome your difficulties

When you are in trouble

And your worries go away

As fast as the pop of a bubble!

They make you laugh

They make you smile

They make your face bright

All the time!

I think that I am who I am

Because of the kindness of my family

They have always been so thoughtful

To ME!

My family is perfect

Really its true

And my life will  be incomplete

without you!

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING FAMILY!

I had a dream

I had a dream

Full of fame

I had a dream

No ordinary game

 

I was chief governor

Ruler of the land

My friend was chief minister

This is what we planned

 

To make our city green

Make it green and clean

Trees are everywhere

Fragrance fills the air

 

We stopped some of construction

Built more charities

The old, poor, homeless girls and boys

Were very very pleased!

 

Smiles and laughs filled the whole city,

It was all looking very pretty

And finally the city of Bangalore

Was a garden city once more!

I love the USA!

United States of America,

A sunny place for holiday,

United States of America,

I came here on first of May!

I was very happy to see my family,

Kuppuswami & my brother Prahlad Kutti!

US has nice stores and lakes,

Believe me its no mistake!

United States of America

Is one of the best places to stay!

That is I why I came here 

For a month long holiday!

The Clouds

In every size, in every shape
A flock of sheep, a bunch of grapes

Cinderella’s slipper, Aladdin’s lamp,

A bouquet of flowers, a skateboard ramp

An elephant and a rabbit too,

A little kitty going mew mew mew 

The passing clouds they come and go

Lovely shapes sway to and fro
 

On my face a lovely smile

After watching clouds for a while
 

They are so fluffy and milk white,

I wish I could sit on one and take a ride!

 

The sky is so bright because of the clouds,

To have them on Earth it makes me very very proud!

Isn’t it breathtaking, The beautiful view

Why don’t you watch clouds with me too!

 

That cute little puppy

This poem is dedicated to my little dog Cousin Kuppu Sami and all the other black labs too!

 

That cute little puppy

I saw him last night

Walking alone

 In a terrible fright

 

That cute little puppy

He was so sweet,

Such tiny paws

And furry feet

 

That cute little puppy

His eyes so bright

His fur so soft

As black as midnight!

 

My lovely doggy cousin Kuppu,

This poem is for you

And not to forget

All the other black labs too!
