435. Christmas Acrostic Poem

Children frolic about

Houses decorated with lights and trees

Reindeer cookies and decorations oh my!

Icy pathways and driveways are filled

Snow falls, slowly, filling up the droops and dowels

Today is a celebration

Merry merry people laugh about

Arranging presents around the tree

Singing happily

434. An Authors World

They take their pen and begin to write

Word afterword

Page after page

She builds my friends and foes

Tells me who to trust, who not to

I act out every word

Every letter and everything

I know not what happens next

For that's for her to decide

It’s not my place to decide what's next

As I am the character living in the author’s world

433. Never-Ending Cycle Poem

White dots cover my porch

Little by little

Spot by spot

The weather goes from sunny to cold

From wearing sunglasses to wearing scarves

When will it be sunny again, I wonder

Oblivious to the snowmen and sleds

But once summer comes

And the snow melts away,

Mosquitoes come to haunt me once again

- Harini 

431. Never-Ending Cycle

White dots cover my porch

Little by little

Spot by spot

The weather goes from sunny to cold

From wearing sunglasses to wearing scarves

When will it be sunny again, I wonder

Oblivious to the snowmen and sleds

But once summer comes

And the snow melts away,

Mosquitoes come to haunt me once again

430. Portal to Another World (Poem)

 As I  open a portal to another world,

The places in front of me fade away

My eyes focus on the very first word

And there their story begins.

Through their mistakes, I learn what not to do.

And through their successes, I succeed.

The pages are turning faster now, the words running wild.

Soon the sun sets, the moon rises, and their journey is coming to an end.

I turn the last page, read the last word, their journey is given to others.

I take out a pencil, paper too, and begin my journey.

278. If I Were In Charge Of The World

(Funny and Meaningless Poem)

If I were in charge of the world,

I cancel sardines,

I cancel snakes,

I even cancel rainy days

If I were in charge of the world,

There would be oceans with no salt,

There wouldn't be sweet lemons,

There would even be rock that turn into gems

If I were in charge of the world,

You wouldn't have wooden pencils,

You wouldn't have eraser shavings,

You wouldn't have grape flavored medicine,

Or, “time to do your chores”

You wouldn't even have chores

If I were in charge of the world,

There wouldn't be lizards,

They wouldn't be dentists,

 Bats wouldn't even exist,

And a person who sometimes wore ties,

And sometimes eight flies,

Would still be allowed to be,

In charge of the world

244. Winter

Coldness fills the air

icicles form around

a cold breeze in the hair

Winter is here

with soft white

snow everywhere

To melt it away

snow-salt is thrown
down the way

175. The Summer Nights

I see….

Flashing Northern Lights,

emerge with  blinking stars

I Look around to see sticky marshmallows

and a bright flashlight in the dark green tent,

Beside it, I see an old oak tree

On it, I see a sly owl,

Ghost stories make me imagine a scary pale ghost

I see the murky water filled with croaking toads and green moss

The small fire flies are bright in the night sky

I Feel….

The cold night breeze feels like winter but,

I sit by the warmness of the fire

as I huddle in my warm blanket

My hand reaches out to hold the cold twig

that has the sticky marshmallows,

I hear…

The small crickets beside me crave for fruits,

The cracks of the cracker sounds

as if the woodpeckers are pecking the bark

The quiet flow of the river puts me to sleep

as I hear people sing traditional campfire songs

Squawking birds fly back to their nests

Owls hoot to let others know that it is time for bed

I smell….

The s'more fills the air with sweetness inside the camp tent

The hot fudge mixes with the s’more and it produces a sweet smell--

But, a horrible smell fills the air and I realize that it’s a skunk

I smell the cold damp woods, as I open my cold bubbling soda

I Taste….

The bubbling soda tastes as if  a thousand

firecrackers exploded in my mouth

The sweet sweet smores as it melts in my mouth

The salty sweet crackers are brittle and soft

169. Fluffy cotton balls

Fluffy cotton balls

Marshmallows scattered high up
Floating shape shifters

142. Poem - Happy Mothers Day

Mom, you’re are the best

Even when I am such a pest

Mom you take care of me when

I am One, Two and even Ten

You have been my mom for years

You are there when I’am in tears

I used to be such a kid,

never told you that you’re the best, that I hid

You help me on the tests

Again you are the best

It’s your day I say Happy Mother’s Day!!

Yayyy!
