The tear wave

The sun peeped through the window
Without a surprise,
But, with a cosy smile
All had no marvel
Other than the Poya.

Some were pretty busy,
Goin’ here and there
Some were doin’,
With pleasure
While, nature was aguisin’
For a bounty,
Only with beasts’ leeringly.

The time came over for
Nature’s grant,
Bit-by-bit….
A great wave came convulsin’
millions.
One wave could turn an island
to a tear lake.

It was the tsunami….

The fat cat

I had a cat //
Who was so fat
He could not even sit on his mat.
He had a hat
That did not fit
He pit it on
And then it split!

The tall  man

A tall man
He ran and ran
Into a can.
He fell right in
And his feet stuck and he made a plan.
To scream and shout.

Scenario

A fantasy world full of
Chocolate mountains,
Faluda juicy waterfalls,
Ice cream rivers,
Trees full of candies,
Hypnotising green grasslands
Everything is stunning

Across the grassland
I’m running
Beneath the river
I’m swimming
Oh no! An eerie shark
Coming towards me
Ate me at once

I can hear a bothersome noise,
From my left
Wait! Wait! Is this real?
I can hear yet?
Am I still alive?
I opened my eyes
I’m on my bed
Lies next to the table with the alarm
It’s the alarm noise
And now I realise
Everything was just a dream
‘A scenario’ I told to myself.
