Poem 51 - A boys first day of school

Using the comb he brushed his hair back

And once again he checked his back pack

Making sure all the books were in there

He closed the bag's zip with lots of care

Who wouldn't on their first day of school?

After all all of us just wanted to look cool

He made sure his shoelace was alright

And he made his belt a bit more tight

He tried not to get into a fight

And to the teachers he was polite

He became the teacher's favorite

Not only a little but every bit

That is how a school boy should be

Not badly behaving like me

And this boy was my other brother

The younger son of my kind mother

-Gaurang Rao

Poem 50 - My Class Teacher

(To Lakshmi Ma'am)

My class teacher

Is not a cheater

She is surely and surely the best

She can bring a good boy out of a pest

She is very, very kind

and she always uses her mind

When we play she has no objection

Actually with us she too has fun

She educates us well

About hearing, about smell

She plays and laughs with me

whenever she is free

But when she is teaching there is always silence

All children will be writing down notes with their pens

She is the one who can handle a class

And she keeps it clean as a window glass

-Gaurang Rao

Poem 49- It's almost Christmas

I stepped out of my house in delight

Everything had become white

Yes, you are right it is snow

It is everywhere high and low

Oh Yes! It is December

It is now that I remember

For a Walk I need to go

In the neighborhood to see the snow

Oh! Every house looks warm

Even the little farm

Each house has a Christmas tree

Decorated completely

In each house there is a small little light

It makes the whole house bright

It reminded me of Christmas

So I didn't make any more fuss

I went back home very, very happy

Remembering to decorate my Christmas tree

And now it is decorated

And my house is also lighted

-Gaurang Rao

Poem 48- Spend time with your friends

In life sometimes comes a point

With friends you no longer can be joint

In life comes a sudden bend

when you realize you have no friend

When the school you have to change

I know you just feel strange

It is a totally unexpected turn

from which a lesson you should learn

That friend's can't be their always

They maybe there only for a few days

With your friends a lot of time you should spend

Before comes the totally unexpected bend

-Gaurang Rao

Poem 47-A Judge's Death

Into his room went the tired old Judge

Preparing for many a case

Outside in the hall he heard something budge

Under blankets he hid his face

It was already Nightfall

When the judge heard a scream

For help he heard somebody call

He wished it was a dream

For Safety he shut the room door

and all the open windows

Trembling he sat on the floor

But later what happened nobody knows

He was found dead

A knife in his throat

Stains were on his bed

and on his black coat

Maybe it was Suicide

or maybe murder

But he surely died

And he left in this year

-Gaurang Rao

Poem 46- Sister's birthday poem

(This poem is dedicated to my sister who's birthday is today, Dec 3)

My silly big sis

Doesn't like my wet sticky kiss

With her I love to fight

What! With her I should be polite?

Being sister and brother

We love one another

The fights we usually forget

But after forgiving I do regret

She might be turning fifteen

But she is very, very mean

But she can also be fun

So she is a sister like none

She is only mine

And she is just fine

HAPPY B'DAY to you

Hope your life feels new

-Gaurang Rao

Poem 45- Father's Birthday poem

(This poem is dedicated to my father who's birthday was on Dec 1)

I love you dad

You never let me be sad

You are very rare

You taught me how to share

Father I love you

And I know you love me too

Even if I get a scare

of me you take care

You have taken me everywhere

To the market to the fair

So today I thank you

for making my life feel new

You have given me everything

Which makes me feel like a king

So today I wish you a happy birthday

This long back I did have to say

You always play with me

Together we have fun

Together we've climbed a tree

and played a lot in the sun

Near me you always are

Together we make a team

From me you never go far

Well to me like that it does seem

-Gaurang Rao
