An Ode to Football - and Messi

I play football and it is so much fun
The joy of the goal, the sweaty run

I kick the ball and it does fly
Into the goal through the sky

When the match is over, the day is done
The king, i say, is only one

Magic in his feet and goals so many
Leo Messi is the best not just any

Messi is the star, of every game
Everyone knows him, he has the fame

He rules the world and stands very tall
Plays so well with a dancing football

He plays football with a dancing ball
Which makes him stand tall

The 5 Bullet Holes

It was the time of the great depression in 1920s. Most people in the world had lost their jobs and some rich went bankrupt. For years, people stayed alive on very little food. It felt like darkness and sadness everywhere It was a dark night in New York city, USA. All shops were closed and people barely came out of their houses. In the city center, there was a café that was lit up and bright. It was called “Phillies”. An eccentric millionaire named George had some money with him and was using it to have a shot of espresso coffee. Suddenly, he started hearing sounds like ‘Boom”, ‘BANG’ and ‘whiss’. A shooting seems to have taken place right outside the café. George got worried and rushed to the kitchen and closed the lights. Soon, the main door of the café crashed open and George heard some footsteps. Suddenly, he started hearing loud gunshots. He got scared and was also worried about the other customers in the café. And then the shooting stopped. He heard steps again – slowly gett

Fidget and Spin

Shashwat loved going round and round in circles-if you ask him anything, he would just just keep going around instead of coming to the point.As he loved to talk, it wasn't too difficult for him to go around everything. Short and thin, he was big and fat on talk, talk and more talk. One day, he came to school with a fidget spinner. Finally, there was something that went round and round faster than Shashwat. The fidget spinner was the main topic of discussion that day. Shashwat and I got together after dispersal and were waiting for our mom's pick us up-while playing with the spinner.Suddenly, the spinner vanished from my hand and shot up into the sky and started spinning on its own. It kept going faster and faster and soon the entire sky was covered with that huge spinning wheel. It had become dark as the sun got blocked and I got really scared. I asked, Shashwat, where he got this strange and dangerous spinner from. But he was too scared himself! Suddenly, he remembered he h

The Big Argument

Millions of years back, there happened a strange argument. Mr Water got very upset and angry. It had been very hot lately and the sun was heating Mr Water up - non stop. He was also scared that if this continues, he will be empty very soon. In his anger, one day, he started fighting with Miss Earth. "You are of no use to me. You live because of me and never do anything to help me", he said. Miss Earth was in no mood to talk as the sun was heating her up too. She replied, "really! all my rivers flow into you and keep you fresh,    and you dare ask for my help". This led to a big debate on who does what and they kept arguing for months. Sometimes, they used to get tired and stop for some time. But started again the very next day. Finally, Mr Water decided to show his power and said "I will show you your place and completely cover you. Let me see how you save yourself." Miss Earth panicked and said "if you do that, everything on me will di
