School
By Natasha Merchant
Yeh ! The time
has come for school
Today is going
to be so cool
I woke up at
7.30 in the morning
School
! School ! I started calling
School is awesome,
school is cool
You can even
swim in the school pool
I love all the
periods, it’s so much fun
You also get
a fee samosa or a bun
Today the first
period is Hindi
Oops! In my
desk there is a bhindi
The next period
is an acting test
It’s drama!
And it is the best
The day went
on and on
The way to describe
it is bing bang bong
Finally it’s
home time
Everyone’s
pen fell so did mine
I go home by
bus
I never make
a fuss
The only problem
with school
Is that homework
is its rule !!!

Books
By Natasha Merchant
Books are great
Books are fun
They are not
quite expensive
They are meant
for everyone
So read them,
read them it’ll be fun
In books they
say you shouldn’t use a gun
I think that
is very right and very true
I love a character
called Winnie the Pooh
To read a book
is very simple
While I’m
reading, I smile, and you can see a dimple
Books also give
you knowledge
While I’m
reading them I eat porridge
Books are so
awesome and cool
I’m not
talking about the ones we take to school
The school ones
to study are so boring
While I read
them I feel like snoring !!!

PEPPER MY DOG
By Natasha Merchant
I have a dog
His name is
pepper
He’s a
Cocker Spaniel
And he’s
very clever.
He’s black, white and grey
He’s definitely not born in May
Pepper is my second brother
Niraj, Pepper and me
Share the same father and mother
He
likes to jump, my little dog
I don’t
think he likes the fog
I’m
very glad we didn’t name him Mog
‘Cause
he sleeps like a log
This cutie pie
is a boy
You should see
him play with his toy
If he doesn’t
get his chewy bones “Greenies”
He thinks all
of us are meanies
I finally
got a dog YIPPEE!!!
Pepper
is just perfect for me

MY
TEACHER
By Natasha Merchant
Our class teacher
Ms Sasoon is very sweet and kind
She’s
got an incredibly intelligent mind
In her class
we play and study
She doesn’t
like it if we get too muddy
We study English,
History, and Geography galore
We want to learn
more and more
But Ms Sasoon
never forgets a game
Only to study
is not her aim
Ms. Sasoon likes
to make everything colourful
She also likes
to work with wool
In writing she
can never be last
I am not even
half as fast
She gives a
little homework at a time
Ms. Sasoon loves
to watch us mime
Different things
and different objects
I don’t
think she likes eggs
When it’s
home time to everyone she says “goodbye”
She looks everyone
in the eye
She doesn’t
shout if you get 1 or 2 wrong in a test
Ms. Sasoon the
fourth standard teacher is the best !!!

When
Papa Showed Up in the Middle of the
Night
By Natasha Merchant
Knock,
knock, knock!
Who’s
that? Now what?
I
know for sure the door’s shut tight
Who
would come in the middle of the night?
When
I peer I see a man,
He’s
looking good looking cool,
What
he’s got is a wonderful tan,
From
the time spent in the swimming pool
Oh
no! Who can it be?
He
looks so much like Niraj to me !
Oh
my gosh I see it’s Papa
What
a surprise it will be for Mama
I’m
going to tell Mama to give him a hug,
She’ll
take him a big cold lemonade jug,
He’s
come from Chennai a long way off,
I’m
happy I’m thrilled I’m laughing a lot !
