A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

2 Black apples exist

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

MIND BLOWING FACTS

By Ismail Thalangara Grade 6

1 Every c in Pacific Ocean is pronounced

differently

3 Spending just a few months in Antarctica can

shrink your brain

4 The longest bicycle in the world is over 135 feet

long

5 The Ethiopian calendar is seven years behind

the rest of the world

6 If all of the water on Earth fell as rain at once

the entire planet would get 1 inch of

precipitation

7 Japan has a phone to call the dead

8 If you folded a piece of paper 42 times it would

be thick enough to reach the moon

9 Newborn babies dont cry tears

10The word oxymoron is an oxymoron itself

an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory

or incongruous words

An example for this is the word oxymoron itselfmdash

since it turns out the word is an oxymoron

Oxymoron is derived from the Greek words

oxys meaning sharp and moronos meaning

dull or stupid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

A PAUSE

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

A pause in the race

we often call life

Is exactly what we heeded

People say

Itrsquos just a phase

Certainly itrsquod be ended

Crowded markets jammed streets

Not a sight to be seen

Shut the schools Shut the malls

And all thatrsquos in between

Ainrsquot it surprising

Something so tiny

That hardly can be seen

Put the world on itrsquos knees

Spreading a wave of decease

In a flash

It changed the weather

We slept in a world

Woke up in another

Ever prayed for a week-long Sunday

Well here you go

Months with no mundane

lsquowork from homersquo

They said

lsquoThe show must go onrsquo

They said

In the midst of chaos

We search for the cause

Argue over 5G and Markaz

Making it all such a fuss

Herersquos an ode to all the heroes

The ones snuggling in their burrows

Helping the medics

By following the ethics

In this time donrsquot be devastated

Do the things yoursquove procrastinated

May not be soon but certainly

We will get past this

So stay together but distantly

TODAYrsquoS LIFE

By Diksha Ramdas Kulal Grade 10B

Todayrsquos life Is a fight

Against all the fright

With all might

Todayrsquos life

Is a fight

Fir freedom

A sky for flight

Todayrsquos life

Is fight

For a soothing light

At all sights

Todayrsquos life

The last flight

Fight it as a knight

With all the delight

I SAW THIRTEEN SPARROWS ON A TREE

By Aadithya Suresh Grade 12 Science

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Yes I stood and I counted

A wish of mine was fulfilled today

A wish of sorts that I never thought of

I watched them with weird amazement

Their laughter their mere engagement

Brought something so curious in sight

More curious than past million times in light

They ran around in gleeful circles

As though it was all a silly game

Something we dont see so often

In this world full of fear what a shame

It was the most joy I ever felt

I clapped and it all just ended

I saw thirteen sparrows on a tree today

Thank god I stood and I counted

BE THE REASON SOMEONE BELIEVES IN GOOD

PEOPLE

By Aditi OG Grade 9

The world in search for a friend

Who will be by our side

Who will bring out the things we try to hide

Someone who is beneficial during needs

And also during our good deeds

We all wish to have such a person in our life

But have you ever wondered

What not try being that soul

Why look for those qualities when you can be the

one

41

In this amalgamated world filled with both

kindness and brutality

Be the one with the golden heart

And the soul which would never hurt

Be the reason someone still believes in good

people

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

FRIEND NOT FOE

By Ebraheem Fahmy Grade 8

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with you its beauty

On the days youre feeling blue

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find peace

A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea

But all these things Im finding

are impossible for me

The only thing I can do

is always be with you

Because you are my friend not foeOk now

FRIENDS

By Hiba Thalangara Grade 12 Science

One of the topics most spoken about

the ones you trust without a doubt

Millions of poets have broken their pen

None could do justice even then

Friendship ainrsquot something that can be described

Not painted or sung or even scribed

Every time you feel your world fall apart

You know you have someone close to your heart

Together the joys pleasures and griefs

Have turned into beautiful memories

The ones who solve your miseries

Are nothing less than treasuries

Itrsquos so much fun to mess around

Pulling off pranks that seem so profound

The beautiful memories when friends surround

Once lost can never be found

A shoulder to cry a hand to hold

A friend does for you beyond that can be told

Are fierce strong and bold

To those who treat you cold

People say friends come and go

Leave you in a state dark and low

Nevertheless I respond to them without a sigh

My head and spirits both held high

There are some meant to stay

That which you realize with each passing day

They stick by you come what May

The bond gets stronger everyday

Friends arenrsquot those that make you feel the best

Or the ones with whom you forget the rest

They are the ones that guide you from wrong

The ones motivating you to be strong

To all my friends all around

Hope you all are safe and sound

I extend my gratitude to each friend I made

Yoursquoll will be remembered till I be laid

THE KING THE BEGGAR AND THE THIEF

By Gyan Shetty Grade 6

One day a poor man was walking along a castle

As he was doing so his back started to itch terribly

So he decided to go up to the castle and rub his

back against the wall When he was doing so the

king walked out of the castle for a walk in the sun

He came by the place where the man was

rubbing his back and saw him

The king asked ldquowhat are you doingrdquo

ldquoMy back was itching so I used the wall to

scratch my backrdquo

ldquoSoldiers give this man 500 gold coins and let him

continue his workrdquo

After doing this the man thanked the king and

they both went their separate ways All this while

two thieves had been watching this interaction

surprised by the fact that the king had not

punished the man and instead rewarded him

they came up with what they thought as a fool

proof plan

The next day they dressed up as beggars and

executed the first step of their plan They were

scratching their backs against the castle wall

when a man who needed advice from the king

approached them Hersquod been watching them for

a while and knew that they were up to

something He was sure that these people were

here to cheat as they could have scratched

each otherrsquos backs

The man said ldquoAre you here to see the kingrdquo

ldquoYes we are Could you take us to himrdquo

ldquoOf course Irsquom one of the kingrsquos minister and Irsquoll

take you thererdquo

The thieves believed him and followed the man

inside As soon as they came before the king the

man began speaking

ldquoYour majesty these two men are obviously

thieves I found them outside using the castle wall

42

to scratch their backs when they both can clearly

itch each otherrdquo

ldquoIs it truerdquo Asked the king

The thieves were ashamed and could not say

anything noticing their hesitation the king told

ldquoYou both will be punished for this If you have

any reason for your actions you can state them

nowrdquo

ldquoWe are sorry we saw you give an old man gold

coins and we became jealous So we thought of

trying this again but alas this man was clever

enough to see through our plot please forgive us

bothrdquo The men confessed

To this the king replied ldquoOk but promise me that

you will never repeat this or anything like this

againrdquo

ldquoWe can promise you thatrdquo

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life

Fun in Lockdown By Safeeda Yasmin Grade 8

Ok now many of you might be thinking ldquoWhat fun can we have in this lockdown if there is nobody

aroundrdquo I used to think the same way at first feeling bored and nothing to do Then I realized that there

are actually many useful things that we can do during this lockdown

Let me explain So in this lockdown we have plenty of time for ourselves and our family We have the

whole time in the world and that is a huge advantage This time will help you in focusing on your future

achievements or your dreams and many other things Well I have come up with some ideas that will

make this lockdown interesting

Quality Time With Family This lockdown is perfect to heal the wounds in the family Spending

more time with your family brings all of you closer and you all start

understanding each other even better This will be your golden

chance to strengthen the relationship that had been loosened due

to misunderstandings mistakes etc

Explore Something New You should try doing something you have never done

before but have always wanted to Donrsquot be afraid of

trying new things It is fine if you fail once or twice or

make mistakes because ldquoNO MAN IS PERFECTrdquo and

ldquoMISTAKES HAVE THE POWER TO TURN YOU INTO

SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU WERE BEFORErdquo So keep

trying and rise up

Start reading Books are of different kinds There are books of mystery horror love fiction

and crime They all are interesting So we should set up a challenge for

ourselves This would be very fun for challenge lovers and book lovers Set up

a goal for yourselves Maybe you could challenge yourself to read minimum

3 books within a month or something You could also join an online book

club You could volunteer or participate in it It will be really fun and it will

improve your language

46

New Languages Now many people love to impress others by speaking foreign

languages But I personally think that learning different types of

languages improves our writing skills By learning the languages

from different countries or cities we learn more about their culture

and traditions Sign language is also a very interesting media to

learn

Start house jobs Start working in your houses by doing something you like Maybe a YouTube channel or selling cakes

and other delicacies There are actually many things you can do with your creativity where you will

enjoy and support your family

So Irsquom sure that all of you might have understood the advantages of lockdown Consider the lockdown

as the gift given to all of us Make use of it to the fullest because I am pretty sure we wonrsquot have such a

long holiday ever in our life
