Allah
A is for Almighty,
L is for loving us exceedingly,
L is for living forever;
A is for All-Powerful,
H is for Healer.

Ramazan
Ramazan…
The month of prayers,
The month of forgiveness,
The month of virtue,
The month of kindness,
The month of blessings,
The month of fasting.

Summer
Summer is here!
It’s a good season to visit a funfair,
But not the time to play under the sun,
Because you may get sunburn!
It’s a good season for swimming,
And a lovely time for skating,
It’s nice to climb trees,
But beware of the honeybees!
It’s a good season to eat ice cream,
And fulfil all your dreams!
It’s time to have celebrations,
And enjoy your summer vacation!

Rain
“Rain?”
Who said rain?
Oh my God I’m turning insane!
It’s such a lovely weather,
Environment of excitement everywhere,
Everybody get out,
Scream and shout!
Only boring people stay in their houses,
Scared of flu,
They miss the season’s fun!
But I don’t care,
I’m going outside,
Don’t call me stupid,
At least I tried
To have fun in the rain!

I can’t changemyself
I can’t change myself,
I love to be myself,
I want to spend my life
Like I truly want;
I want to be myself every time,
To be naughty, to be tall,
To stand out in the assembly hall!
I can’t change myself,
My classmates tease me
For being extraordinarily tall;
But still it’s my own self,
And I don’t want to change myself!

My bear
I had a bear,
He was a cute bear,
I wanted to go to a fair,
He ran after me in the cold air,
As he wanted to accompany me,
In the car,
We went so far,
We stopped at a shop,
And teddy got lost,
I ran in great fear,
I tried to find
My lovely bear;
His name was Little Tim,
He loved pears,
Are you there, bear?
I looked under a chair,
And I found my bear!

Fuzzy bunny
Fuzzy bunny,
Fuzzy bunny saw a bee,
Fuzzy bunny was worried,
Fuzzy bunny saw a tree,
Fuzzy climbed it in a hurry,
Fuzzy saw a beehive on the tree,
Then fuzzy got stung by a bee.

My little puppy
My puppy’s name is Tommy,
He runs very fast,
He is very sharp,
His colour is light brown,
He likes to eat in a bowl,
He likes to eat biscuits,
His paws are very sharp,
I love my puppy so much!

The desert
Oh heavenly father!
Please help me out,
To find my soul,
To find my heart,
Why me?
Why am I the only one who is deserted?
I can’t even die,
For I am already dead,
The thorny cactus,
Pricks me,
The camel stomps on me,
The man ignores me,
Why me?
I’m waiting,
I’m waiting for the shower,
Which will flow through me,
Which will love me,
When will the blossoms of happiness
Bloom on me?
Right now I’m alone,
The deserted desert!

Me and my cat
My cat is fat,
My cat wears a hat,
My cat sits on a mat,
My cat chases the rat,
My cat calls me Nat,
My cat says good luck to all of you.

Mom
Mom, you’re everything to me,
Mom, you’re the one
Who taught me to walk;
You are the one
Who taught me to speak;
You are the one
Who sacrificed her sleep for my ease;
I annoyed you,
I neglected you,
I teased you,
I disrespected you,
But, now I’m sorry
For all my bad deeds;
You are my treasure,
And I’ll value you forever!
Ayesha Farooq, 12 years, Rawalpindi
Education
Education makes our future bright,
It shows us the right way
To spend our life!
Education is an ocean,
An ocean of knowledge,
It nurtures us,
It guides us,
It supports us,
Education is a true friend,
That helps us in need!

Math
Maths is a subject,
A very interesting subject indeed,
It is easy if you take interest in it,
It helps you throughout your life,
As life is meaningless
Without math!

Games
Games are something which youngsters
Love to play;
Games are something which let you
Enjoy your life;
Games are something from which you
Never get bored;
Games are something which make us
Happy and cheerful;
Games are something which refresh
Our minds;
Games are something which you can
Play in every season;
Games are something I love the most!

Football
My favourite sport is football,
Mostly players fall while running,
The hand is not allowed to touch the ball,
Otherwise it is handball,
There are 11 players in each team,
At the end of the match,
Players look like steaming,
I like to watch a football match,
My favourite team is Liverpool,
Because the players in this team are very cool,
I never miss a match of Liverpool,
Because no one can make them fool!

An apple a day
An apple a day, Keeps the doctor away,
Brushing teeth twice a day,
Keeps the cavities away,
A carrot a day,
Keeps the eye specialist away,
Drinking a glass of milk a day,
Keeps the orthopaedic surgeon away,
Reciting the Holy Quran each day,
Keeps sins away,
Offering Namaz five times a day,
Keeps hell away,
Giving a smile to our parents each day,
Keeps hardships and worries away!
Alishba Hashim, 8 years, Karachi
Things I like
Among the things I like,
The first one is my toy bike.
I like it the most,
It is faster than a ghost.
Second on the list are the rubber-made toys,
Which are adored by both girls and boys!
The third is cricket,
In which the ball sometimes hits the wicket,
The fourth is football,
I bought one from a mall.
