Of innocence and bravery
Childhood
Nandika Sharma, Class IX, Ryan International School, Ludhiana
Childhood is life’s best part,
It’s close to everyone’s heart;
That’s the age, no one can forget
Childhood was the stage, when I and happiness actually met!
In babyhood, as much as you want, you may cry;
But in adulthood, your maturity not let you even try!
As a child, we tend to sit on dad’s back and shoulder;
And you don’t even get a single minute, once you are grown older!
In childhood, our attitude and nature is so brighten,
That nothing let us frighten!
At a very fast speed, the childhood flew;
But still go and ask your heart, is there still a child inside you?
To brave soldiers
Jhanvi Batta, Class IX, Ryan International School, Patiala
February 14 (2019) was a black day,
Bring peace to the brave martyrs, I pray.
Oh my brave and strong soldiers,
You have a lot of burden on your shoulders.
Whether it is day or night,
You stay steadfast and fight.
And when they fall, they ask the nation not to weep,
‘ We are awake so you can sleep’.
Men with nerves of steel and fast like a fox ,
Ask ‘when I die pack me in a box’.
They ask their family not to cry ,
because for my country, they say, they are born to die.
