World Water Day

General, poetry Leave a comment

Hello my readers! A very good day to you all. As you all know, March 22nd is observed as ‘World Water Day’. So, here I am with my ‘Johny Johny Yes Papa’. Yes, again rhyme. But this time, I am happy because my daughter actually read this verse and she really liked it. Her favourite line from this verse is “‘No water’, and she threw the bomb”.

My daughter enacts every lines from this verse. I find it very cute and hence this verse is special to me.

A month before, Mumbai ran out of water and this verse is somewhat about it. So happy reading.

World Water Day

Rita and Amita, good friends
loves to make reels and make it trend.

Dancing and hoping all day
and in the end, their faces were all gray.

Hungry and thirsty, they went to mom
“No water”, and she threw the bomb.

Rita went to shop, to buy water jar
but “it’s not available, it’s very far”

Amita searched it online,
but “out of stock” was their headline.

Then papa came home, playing cricket,
“I have to take a bath” was the big-ticket.

Utilizing the only bucket, full of water, they had,
everyone had to wait for the pipeline to get repaired.

The whole day, without food, without water, they somehow managed
but thinking life without water, they all were emotionally damaged.

That one day, they were in stress
but in the end, receiving water was a bless.

They learned a lesson to save and store
and this is not rocket science, you should not ignore.

Really blessed you are, with access of water
some cry and beg for it, some paid high-price for her

Life without water is nothing and vegetable
so let’s take a pledge, this world water day,
to conserve and use it wisely,
else it will be inaccessible.

Things I See When I Take A Walk.

General, poetry 10 Comments

Hello my precious readers. A very good day to all. So, again I am back with my “johny johny yes papa” rhyme. It has been a long time since I have blogged. Because nowadays, I blog for my daughter. Yes, this rhyme is again for my daughter, which was supposed to be published somewhere in a school magazine or something. But I think they didn’t like it. Hence, I am publishing it here. Anyways, I always publish the post or rhyme which I have written elsewhere. So here it goes;

—————————————————————————————————–

It’s been a long time,
haven’t been to my favorite place.
So let’s go there and take a walk
and see things and talk.

The portion of huge lawn,
reserved by beautiful aunties
recites prayers and storytellers
in their sixties.

Small playground, seized by football lovers
playing like Ronaldo and Messi
wearing their favourite jersey.

The kids’ play area
is like a war zone
less they play,
the more they cry in high tone.

The walking track by the side
is always empty
kids started using them
for cycling.

Some use the lawn
for picnics
the security guards always shout at them
for eating in public.

Yes, this is my favourite place,
because I can see guava, custard apple and lemon tree
which kids pluck and eat
because it’s free.

Come and visit my favourite park.
I am sure you will like it to the top.
and let me know the things you saw
when you took a walk.

Didactic Cinquain

General, poetry 10 Comments

Hello my precious readers. A very good day to all. So, what is this Didactic Cinquain? Well as per the google, “Didactic” means “to teach” and “Cinquain” means “5-lines poem”. But in this there is a rule. The rule is that the first line should be only one word. Mainly the topic. The second line contains two adjectives of the first line. The third line has three words ending in “ing”. The fourth line has four or more words that make a complete sentence. The fifth line is again one word. 

Sounds interesting, right? I am not a poet, but I still gave a try to this type of verse. This time, I have written two. The first Cinquain is about my daughter and the second is about time. So lets start my Jhonny Jhonny yes papa.
