Fire and Ice

                                                 By-Robert Frost

  Some say the world will end in fire
  Some say in ice.
  From what I' ve tasted of desire
  I hold with those who favour fire.

     
       
 
  But if it had to perish twice,
  I think I know enough of hate
  To say that for destruction ice
  Is also great
  And would suffice.

A Happy Child

Enjoy this poem      My house is red - a little house     A happy child am I .     I laugh and play the whole day long.      I hardly ever cry.            I have a tree, a green, green tree,      To shade me from the sun;      And under it I often sit,      When all my play is done.

The Swing

    How do you like to go up in a swing,      Up in the air so blue.                        Oh! I think, it is the pleasantest thing,           Ever a child can do!      Up in the air and over the wall,      Till I can see so wide.             Rivers, trees, cattel and all,             Over the countryside .         Till look down to the garden ,       Down on the roof so brown.                        Up in the air I go flying again,                 Up in the air and down.                                    -Robert Louis Stevenson...

My Mother at Sixty-six

                                      Kamala Dad    Driving from my parents's home to Cochin    last Friday morning, I saw my mother,   beside me,      doze, open mouthed, her face ashen like    that    of a corpse and realised with pain    that she thought away, and looked but soon   put that thought away, and looked out at    young    trees sprinting, the merry children spilling    out of their homes, but after the airport's   security check, standing a few yards away,   I looked again at her, was, pale    as a late winter's moon and felt that old    familiar ache, my childhood's fear,   but all  I said was, see you soon,    Amma,   all I did was smile and smile and smile......
