My Poems

NASA is the best

Its rockets are at rest 

But filled with zest

So, strap on your vest

For a zero-gravity test

NASA is the best

New rovers are at test 

One flew to Mars and roams like cars

Takes new pictures 

And makes new adventures

NASA is the best

On a Robonaut quest

Becomes a resident 

On a Milky Way planet

To help us experiment

NASA is the best

It's a scientists nest

Who work without rest 

To succeed in many more quests 

And that makes them the best

(Dedicated to all the scientists who work so hard and risk their lives to get details about the universe. Thanks to them, we know a lot about space today!)

Audience chatter

Microphones patter.

Claps clatter

News channels broadcast

Everything seems so fast

Stage doesn't frighten me seconds later

The lights shine

Like poking pine

Suddenly, this light is lame

Too late, my eyes are now aflame

Still, I go with the flow

And along, I follow

Then, it just happens

My voice smoothly ripens

Stage doesn't frighten me seconds later

I was 9 years old

My both parents were coding

I just was curious and asked my dad

'How do you make websites ?! "

My dad said "Let's do it!"

I was so excited!

I started learning but it was challenging

Coding was fun when I started understanding

It felt happy to be proficient!

But what's the way to master?

Practice! Practice! and more Practice!

And do real world examples

That's what I actually did!

I made a web based math game

Using the programming languages I learned

My game was not cool in the first go!

I thought "Whoops! What do I do now ?! "

I asked family and friends for cool ideas

I rebuilt my game and BOOM!

My first web game was published! Hurray! Wohoo!

I was determined to learn more and more

I kept learning advanced languages

Ode to code, I now know that this is the purpose of my life

My goal is to start a technology company

And amaze the world!

Your name is Corona

Invisible to our retina

But we will fight you!

Quickly, you're gonna bid adieu

We'll keep our hands cleaner

It makes the chances leaner

We're also gonna self-isolate

You'll leave at an earlier date

We will wear facemasks

We'll carry out our tasks

We're gonna stay away(1)

You're gonna have to pay

You also taught somethings to us

Not to make the environment a mess

We're spending family time

Outdoor bills now cost less than a dime

You triggered another world's crusade(2)

With positivity and discipline we'll combat till you vade(3)

Glossary

1. Stay away - in this context it means social distancing

2. Crusade - War

3. Vade - In British English: Vanish

Although I have many options

When I see Murukkus

Before anybody can lay their hands

snatch it away like a hungry dog

After I take a bowl

As I sit down comfortably

While I look through my mobile

I take a bite gracefully

As I munch

While it makes a scrunch

When the paste feels like elixir

I truly wonder "Oh boy, isn't this a sixer?"

Amidst life's twists and turns,

I'm on a quest to find my place, a story yet untold.

Like, you know, I'm facing dreams and stuff,

Trying to figure out what's real, what's bluff. I’ll turn sixteen.

In the mirror, I'm seeing change take hold,

Growing up, it's like a journey, kinda bold.

I'm learning that fear's just a stepping stone,

And that being me is cooler than being a clone. I’ll turn sixteen.

I've got dreams that sparkle, like stars at night,

Wanna reach 'em all, take a crazy flight.

Life's like a maze, but I've got my guide,

Inner strength is there, no need to hide. I’ll turn sixteen.

Friendships are like gems, shining bright,

Through ups and downs, we hold on tight.

Being real is where it's at, no cap,

Weird and unique, that's the vibe we gotta top. I’ll turn sixteen.

The moon's my best friend, whispers in the dark,

Lessons from the past, like a guiding spark.

Taking life one step at a time, you know,

Painting my own picture, letting my colors show. I’ll turn sixteen.

Life's a stage, and I'm in the play,

Figuring out my role, every single day.

Threads of memories weave a tale so sweet,

Leaving footprints behind, as life and I meet. 

I’ll turn sixteen.
