If mice could roar ,

and elephants soar,

And trees grow up in the sky,

If tigers could dine on biscuits and wine ,

And the fattest of men could fly!

If pebbles could sing ,

And bells never ring ,

And teachers got lost in the post.


If a tortoise could run ,

and losses be won ,

And bullies be buttered on toast

If a song brought a shower,

and a gun grew a flower,

this world would be nicer than most!

-Ruskin Bond.

this was one of my favorite poems by Ruskin Bond as a kid , i still find it quite fascinating, i hope you enjoyed it as much as i do, everytime i read it.



......


I felt a Funeral, in my Brain,

And Mourners to and fro

Kept treading - treading - till it seemed

That Sense was breaking through -

And when they all were seated,

A Service, like a Drum -

Kept beating - beating - till I thought

My mind was going numb -

And then I heard them lift a Box

And creak across my Soul

With those same Boots of Lead, again,

Then Space - began to toll,

As all the Heavens were a Bell,

And Being, but an Ear,

And I, and Silence, some strange Race,

Wrecked, solitary, here -

And then a Plank in Reason, broke,

And I dropped down, and down -

And hit a World, at every plunge,

And Finished knowing - then -

- Emily Dickinson



I'm a little time bomb short and small

Inconsequential until I blow up,

When you hear me ticking don't stand and shout,

Pack your things and run away and leave me on the ground.


- me




will keep adding in poems to this post as i go along, enjoy!
