Rhyme Time
Aim high

If they can reach high

Then why can’t I?

If they can touch the sky

Then why can’t I?

But, they didn’t tell a lie

And so won’t I

For this, they had to try

I will not lie

The same can I achieve

I know for that

My laziness I’ll have to leave

To achieve something

To work hard, they had to cling

They didn’t cheat their conscience,

And had lot of patience.

Like this, they did reach high

If they can why can’t I

So I will try

To touch the sky

And reach heights of

success

Then, I’ll achieve my aim

And earn fame

It was a Saturday morning

But the pen was shouting

It said I would not write

It showed its might

On the day it got cracked

It said get me packed

It said, "For some time

I will go in the box

After that I will run like an ox"

The children were worried

They were very hurried

They saw the pencil

That was lying under the stencil

This broke the pen’s pride

Watching this the pen cried
