The Wind Poem
by Swastik Mukherjee

Petals of beautiful flowers
Fly and fall on the towers

When we throw a flying disk
Without the wind, it’s a risk

Clothes dry faster
Without wind it’s a disaster

Kites fly high and high
They want to touch the sky

Windmills go round and round
They seem to make some spinning sound

The Clouds Poem
by Akul Kinnarkar

Clouds are black and white
Sure, they make a beautiful sight
Clouds are of different shapes
Circle, oval and various makes

Sometimes big
Sometimes small
They look like fog
And at times like a dog

Clouds are cute
Hairy like jute
I can hear thunder when clouds clash
I can see a lightning flash

Now begins the rainy season
And of course, the clouds are the reason

The Summer Poem
by Sharvari Patankar

I eat mangoes, chocolates and yummy
ice cream
Then my friends and I, laugh and scream

In summer I go to my hometown
That’s when I smile, and never frown

I drink cold drinks, they are so cool
They make us drool!
In summer I don’t have to go to school!!

I wish summer stays for long
But can other seasons wait for so long?

The Night Poem
by Aarna Kinnarkar

Stars are shining
Moon is smiling
Beautiful sight
In a beautiful night

When the nights are dark
Big and small dogs bark
Sometimes owls
Make some howls

I have dinner with my brother
I watch tv with my mother
Hugging my mother I sleep on my bed
Dreaming of a fairy, dressed in red

I open my eyes, it is morning
No more dreams, its so boring

The Morning Poem
by Deetya Das

I wake up in the morning
The sun is shining bright
When I looked out of the window
A spider gave me a fright

I eat my breakfast and fruits
My dog barks at me and he tries to play the flute
I think he does not play well
But he is very cute

I hear the birds chirping
And I see the horses galloping
I see in the garden that the flowers are
blooming
And I see in the fields the cows are roaming
Oh that was a beautiful morning!

                                               11/19

A Spring Poem
by Ira Valli Navin

Oh! So near
Spring comes here

Flowers grow
In the meadow

There is plenty of lemon grass
We use it to flavour a smoothie and pour it
in a glass

Trees grow big
I eat fruits like apple, orange and fig

Butterflies fly
In the sky
And bees buzz
The picture of spring isn’t a fuzz

                                              13/19

A Rainy Day Poem
by Pragnya Hariharane

I eat hot hot bhajji
with my pyari Ajji
I love to drink hot chocolate
Before it is too late

When in the weather there is a chill
I love to learn a new skill
But when l get a gap
l love taking a short nap

l drink milk from a flask
Before putting on my mask
l wear my favourite frock
And see the birds flying in a flock

l had lots of fun today
Because it was a rainy day!!!

An Autumn Poem
by Nandita Kartha

Yellow, orange, brown and green
Are the autumn colours seen

Fall is here, the air is cool
My mom makes hot chocolate and I drool

I sleep under my warm blanket
And it gets stuck in my noisy anklet

Out come pumpkins, bats, cats and spooky
ghosts, asking for Halloween trick or treat

Next comes Thanksgiving with the yummy
turkey to eat!

The Winter Poem by
Aabha Deshpande

Winter is my favourite season
It’s my birthday that’s the reason

I love to drink hot chocolate
With my friends, Cathy and Kate

I eat hot pakoda
And lots of sambhar and vada

I go for a winter holiday with my family
We all sing very merrily
