MY CRAZY MORNING

When my clock struck six,
It whirred and danced
For my head to fix,
The sunshine glanced.

I opened my eyes,
I was very - very sleepy
Oh I said seeing the skies,
The morning is so creepy.

I headed to the bathroom,
To brush first
But I think I can’t reach my classroom,
As the tube burst.
I wanted a bath,
But on the watery path
As I tripped,
Till the door I slipped.

To eat my food,
I was nearly in a dead mood
But when my mother wanted me to be fed,
I broke my head.

When I reached the school gate,
I was nearly late
It was not a jolly day,
When I reached the class it was a holiday.

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL HEART

                                                 

One day a young man was standing in the middle of the town proclaiming that he he had the most beautiful heart in the whole valley.

A large crowd gathered and they all admired his heart for it was perfect. There was not a mark or a flaw in it. Yes, they all agreed it truly was the most beautiful heart they had ever seen.

The young man was was very proud and boasted more loudly about his beautiful heart.

Suddenly, an old man appeared appeared in front of the crowd and said,"Why is your heart not nearly as beautiful as mine?"
The crowd and the young man looked at the old man's heart. It was beating strongly...but full of scars. It had places where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in...but they didn't fit quite right and there were several jagged edges.
In fact, in some places there were deep gouges where whole pieces were missing . The people wondered..how could he say his heart is more beautiful, they thought.

The young man looked at the old man's heart and saw its state and laughed.

"You must be joking,"he said. "Compare your heart with mine...mine is perfect and yours is a mess of scars and tears."

"Yes,"said the old man," Yours is perfect looking...but I would never trade with you. You see, every scar represents a person to whom I have given my love....I tear out a piece out a piece of my heart and give it to them...and often they give me a piece of their heart which fits into the empty place in my heart...but the pieces aren't exact, I have some rough edges, which I cherish, because they remind me of the love we shared.

Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart away...and the other person hasn't returned a piece of his  heart heart to me. These are the empty gouges...giving love is taking a chance. Although these gouges are painful, they stay open, reminding me of the love I have for these people too...and I hope someday they may return and fill the space I have been waiting. So now do you see what true beauty is?"

The young man stood silently with tears running down his cheeks. He walked up to the old man, reached into his perfect young and beautiful heart and ripped a piece out. He offered it to the old man with trembling hands.

The old man took his offering, placed it in his heartand heart and then took a piece of from his old scarred heart and placed it in the wound in the young man's heart. It fitted but not perfectly, as there were some jagged edges.

The young man looked at his heart, not perfect anymore but more beautiful than ever, since love from the old man's heart flowed into his. They embraced and walked away side by side.

INTELLIGENT DAUGHTER

                Once upon a time in a small village, there was no sign of the rain in that village .Al the crops were destroying and the condition was getting worst by each passing day .In this  all, a farmer borrowed huge sum of  money from the big family to improve his agriculture but the nature could not turn up in his way and at lost all the money that he owed. Now he was in  huge debt and he had nothing to give to the money lender .

               The farmer had a beautiful daughter and the moneylender who was ugly ,and he wanted to marry farmer’s daughter. Farmer had nothing but to accept his proposal. The moneylender told that he would put two pebble------one black and white in a bag . And the girl had to pick one from them .If she picked the black pebble then she had to marry him and her father’s debt would be forgiven and if she picked the white pebble, then she need not to marry and still the debt would be forgiven . But if she refused to pick any, her father would be thrown inside the bars. As per decision the moneylender bend to pick two pebbles, the sharp eyed girl noticed that he had picked  two black pebble . There was no white pebble in the bag . The girl had an idea , she picked a pebble and dropped it on the road .
              She cunningly said if you look into the bag for the left pebble then you will be able to decide which she picked. Since the left one in the bag was black pebble, then obviously she picked the white pebble and the moneylender had to forgive the debt. Also he  could  not tell the truth because it would reflect his dishonesty . In this way all debt of farmer was forgiven.

So we can say that it is not how intelligent you are , but you have to think different in different  situation

MOTHERS

For me everyday is a special day,

& everyday I want to wish my mother,

''Happy Mother`s Day''

Mothers are like marvelous creatures,
God has given her some brilliant features.

She is like a helping angel,
She is like a help in danger.

She is our only idol,
She is also our role model.

And being a child,
I can say with pride.

Since we are growing in our mother`s shade,
No one can make us afraid.

The Curious Monkey

        One day a carpenter was sawing a large log to divide it into two parts. A monkey sitting in a tree was watching him. The carpenter stopped his work at lunch time. Only half of portion of the log was cut by then. So he pushed a wedge into the split and then went for lunch.

After the carpenter had gone, the monkey jumped down from the tree. He went round the log and observed it for some time. He stopped at the wedge and looked at it curiously. His curiosity mounted. So he sat down on the log keeping it between his two legs. His long tail was dangling down through the wide split. He handled the wedge out of curiosity. Suddenly he pulled out the wedge. As soon as the wedge was removed, the split parts of the log stuck together with a snap and caught the monkey’s tail.

 The monkey gave out a loud cry with pain and jumped off. His tail was gone for ever.

MORAL :  LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP. IT CAN BE RISKY TO HANDLE AN UNKNOWN OBJECT.

POEM

When I ask my Mum:"What's for tea?"
She smiles and says,"Wait and see!"

When I ask my Dad what good things he's done,
He smiles and says,"In a minute, son."

When I ask my grandmother if I can watch television,
"I'll think about it, "she says to me.
When I ask my grandfather about good old days,
"Now you are asking," he smiles and says.

If I answer the question my teacher ask me,
With "In a minute"or " Wait and see"
I know just what the result would be!
