PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS

Where does one find happiness?
A child may get it between his toys' mess.

For a bird it may be in feeding her chicks,
For a batsman, when he hits a six.

Fathers are happy when moms cook well,
Students enjoy when rings the bell.

Flowers bloom on a nice sunny day,
A lion is delighted when it catches its prey.

Paupers feel blessed when get a coin or two,
You feel happy when someone greets-Happy Birthday To You.

Peacocks are thrilled when bursts the clouds,
A magician cheers up when applauds the crowd.

If we feel happy even in small things,
Then why not an aura of happiness bring?

POLLUTION

Smoke is rising from the cars,
trucks , buses, motor bikes
and destroying the pretty flowers.
here and there it is fierce.
Gathering in clouds,
growing up day by day,
leading to global warming
and making the earth its prey.
Burning poly bags ,
are danger tags.
It increases the pollution
to which, there is no sollution.
The earth is getting worse and worse,
if not prevented, it would become a curse.
So stop this pollution
and save the nation.

RAINY SEASON

Clouds are gathering in the sky.
Do you know why?
Rains have come, and tiny droplets
are falling on the earth with a great joy.
There is knee-deep water
but I don't bother
I used to play
with paper boats and clay.
The peacocks spread their wings
and begin to dance and sing,
while people move out of their villas
and carry colourful umbrellas.
Rains bring relief
from intense heat
but, I sometimes dream
why doesn't instead of water we have cream?

LIFE

Life is just like snakes & ladders
sometimes we become happier
while sometimes we become sadder.
We move on slowly step by step
in our life and the game.
Sometimes we climb a ladder
and gain fame.
We become proud
and gather crowd.
'Surely, we we'll reach the goal'-
says our soul.
But we don't know- there is also a snake.
Get up, you have to wake.
But oh it's too late.
we fall down and down
abusing our luck and fate.
Never mind, you have to regain,
throw off your pain
as it would again rain.
Rolling the dice,
we climb the ladder thrice.
But oh! there is again a snake.
down and down we went,
Keeping hands on hands, is not what it meant.
Life is full of ups and downs.
Dom't worry, you'll also wear a crown.
If there is success,
we also have to face the failure,
don't go mad and change your behaviour.
Rolling the dice we move on
waiting for a magic.
And yes! we have reached the goal
and it's just because we didn't lose hope.
And victory is ours
after thousands of hours.
So, try again and again
until you regain.

IF I COULD FLY

If I have wings and feathers,
that fly me away in all weathers,
I would fly with the birds
and teach them all my words.
I would reach the sky high,
see the world beneath me
and would go to the poor ones
and give them clothes, chocolates and buns.
I would give my friends a call
and would tease them all.
Hurrah! I could fly,
you can't reach, as high as I.
On the Independence Day,
I would be very happy and gay
as I would tangle up all the kites
and would lead to a great fight.
May be, I would miss my home,
but still, for a few days, I would like to fly alone.

A LITTLE HELP

Once I walked across the road
and saw an old lady with a huge load.
I quickly went on and took her bags,
left her to her house, she was really glad.
Then I went on and saw a baby crying.
He had lost his balloon,while his mother was buying
Then I bought for him another one
and soon he was in a great fun.
Now,I saw a young boy
trying to pluck an apple with a great joy.
But he was too small and couldn't reach
& so I told him, don't worry, take a peach.
I got tired and went back to my house,
& saw my mother with a broom, catching a mouse.
I laughed upon it,
and told I couldn't help her a bit.

A STRANGE DREAM

It was all dark
a strange point I couldn't mark.
A horror music blew
something above my head flew.
With a sudden swish
Oh! for what could I wish
Was it a witch on her ugly broom?
I knew I would be dead very soon.
The music stopped
and a strange laughter popped.
Silver lightening I could see in the sky
my ears red, unable to cry.
A lighted candle I could see
Oh! approaching towards me.
Then a bright face,
grizzled hair I could trace.
it disappeared in black
all my courage I lacked.
I started running as fast as I can.
Suddenly my eyes opened
my mother was waking 'get up you'll be late for van'
The music in my heart I bore,
I decided to watch horror films no more.

SO MANY SUBJECTS

There are so many subjects
which a student has to read
in his mind, he has to feed.
Starting from Hindi
oh! it's too boring
the marks are gone
just for not putting a bindi.
Coming on to English
it looks so kiddish
but it's not at all scoring
do you find it boring?
Maths is fun
it's course always run.
'2x+3=4'
identities have to be learnt more and more.
Science is too interesting,
there is chemical experimenting.
In Physics, we play with magnets.
Oh! Bio. micro organisms have to be made our pets.
Geography is good,
but it depends upon mood.
In Computer, everything has to be cleared.
'EXCEL' is not a topic to fear.
It's a tough task
to give exams for them all.
But anyhow we have to do
or be ready to fall.

TEARS

What is the life without tears?
You cry on sorrows, you're unable to bear.
You cry when you are defeated by your prey,
You cry when someone dear passes away.
Your eyes get filled with tears,
On a hard truth you're unable to hear.
Tears roll down your cheeks,
When you come to know in exams you were week.
You cry when, to a hostel you are send,
and cry when you're scold by your parents.
You weep when you are unable to do something,
And weep when you don't find your favourite thing.
Tears roll, when you cut an onion with a knife.
So, just listen! Tears are a part of your life.
They will follow you in your joys and sorrows.
They will follow you in your today and morrows.

EXAMS

Exams are knocking at the door,
the burden is increasing more and more.
Its just a week left,
I wouldn't be able to do, I bet.
I'm unable to learn or write,
its a big thing to fight.
I'm having a great pain,
would I be able to gain?
I want some one to explain
as I have forgotten the point that was main.
I have to study on till night,
to reach a great height.
I'm unable to solve the equations,
for it I want a solution.
I've just gone mad,
I'm worried my exam won't go bad.
Elders say, don't be in a hurry,
everything will be fine,don't worry.
I think they are right,
I just need some patience to fight.
