Long Face - Light Poetry

3 years old Gopal loved his dad
And in free time they together played
In the evening after he came from work
When before coffee he would take a break.

His mom would prepare snakes and biscuits
Which they would happily taste
Enjoying each other company
And being together happily.

One day when Gopal’s dad went to wash his face
Gopal said he will help him in his place
And when his father asked why he took long time to finish
He replied, ‘ Your head is bald, you got a long face!”

Nothing to Worry!

Gopal parents loved each other
But in government his Dad was a minister
And he was always busy
Still he took everything easy.

One day his parents were invited to a function
And his mother did not want to miss her relation
She was looking forward to go there
And she asked Gopal’s Dad was he aware.

He said he had a assembly session
But to worry there is no reason
He asked for her relation to buy sweets
As he would stage a walkout and join in 15 minutes!
