Helping Out!

From school Gopal was on camping trip
With other friends whom teachers took
They had to climb a hill near by
So from there they could see the sky.

At first students were very eager
But when climbing half they were tired
Still they made it to the top
While one student in middle left out needing help.

When none came forward,
“I’ will give chocolates to whoever help”, said teacher
Suddenly few student got down and brought him
“Good”, said the teacher, “ Now the chocolates
bag is somewhere below go take it!”

But his mother found within minutes she took up

She replied, “I was looking for Rs 1500
and not a piece of plastic that is small!”

Ancient history is now out!

10-years old Gopal was good in school
Where teacher invited a man from Egypt to tell
About famous pyramids of Giza
So about ancient history they could realize.

Gopal’s father had introduced him to net
Where through computers he knew many facts
He learnt a lot in his house
By clicking with the key pad and mouse

The man showed slides of pyramids
And said, “They were built around 2600BC
Does anyone know what that means?”
Recognizing the pics Gopal shouted out,
“Before computers!”

When Toad Told!

Gopal was in first-stranded

As he was poor in studies
And him to improve his parents wished

And helped Gopal spell out, “T-O-A-D.”

Seeing him finished writing story looking satisfied
So teacher asked Gopal to read it aloud
He read, “I toad my mama, I like her !”

Amounts Size Earned

Gopal and Sham were friends
They used to get high school funds from the government
Although Gopal parents were rich
And from them a large sum was within reach.

From the money from his parents
He used to eat ice cream and chocolates
With his friend Sham who shared same taste
But one morning Gopal smiled least.

Government had decided to direct deposit to parents account
Sham happily told “You would have the money in an instant”,
But Gopal replied , “For past 5 years,
I’ve been telling my parents earned very less!”

Repairing the puncture

Gopal was in 10th standard
And physically he was thin by common standard
His class-mates made fun of him
So teacher tried to boast his esteem.

In the physical training class
Students were lying on their backs “pedaling”
And everyone except Gopal was cycling fast,
To their speed he couldn’t compete.

“My cycle has a puncture”, said Gopal
Taking pity on sweating Gopal teacher told all
“Okay, let others repair the puncture,”
“Others, start pumping by doing push-ups!”

The Wider Net

Gopal and Ramu were neighbors
Who used to play after school
The 12 year old Gopal spoke bad language
Which Gopal mother’s mind set rage.

She know Ramu used foul language
So she warned her son not to speak
But Gopal liked Ramu very much
And thought a plan in now days of internet.

“Refuse to speak”, said Gopal’s Mother
And was very happy as he agreed
As she thought from Ramu she freed
Gopal with laptop asked, “in Facebook friends… Do I accept?

Taste of Success!

Gopal and Sham are friends
Who on each other’s support they depend
But there was competition between the two
As each one was smarter then other they believed.

Gopal studied hard for class test
In past for Sham’s marks he couldn’t beat
He studied hard but with little hope
As failures in past he had to cope.

Teacher was announcing ranks of class test
Sham was grinning thinking he was the best,
Sham’s head was raised and Gopal’s bent
But when after rank was announced above Sham’s shoulder was Gopal’s head!.

Synthesizing for Exam!

Gopal was studying in 5th grade
And his mother was trying his marks to upgrade
As his exams were going on
Gopal’s mother wanted her son to shine.

He had Botany exam that day
In the morn his mother making him recall
By asking questions while having breakfast
So her son would do well in test.

Admiring himself in his green suit
Gopal’s father entered and asked him, “How do I look?”
Taking his eyes of the book
Gopal replied, “Ready to photosynthesis!.”

Book - Reading VS Looking!

Gopal always came home after a fight
While he was playing with his friends
His father seeing his naughty 12 years old
Decided to do something to mold.

Gopal’s father bought a holy book to his child
Where stories with morals he could find
To get inspired and maintain peace
So with his friends he would be at ease.

Gopal’s father gave the book to his son
And said, “You can find everything here to win.”
But seeing him coming back home next day as usual
When his father asked about the book,
Gopal replied, “I looked it wasn’t there!.”

Price says it all!

Gopal and Sham were friends
Both were 5th grade students
Sham liked every thing of high price
While Gopal preserved every thing his.

One day Gopal’s dad brought a pair of new shoes
Gopal wanted to replace it with his good pair of used shoes
He asked Sham whether he wanted his old one
Sham replied cheap items he would have none.

After few days have passed
An idea in Gopal’s head fell into place
He told Sham a friend asked his old shoes for 100 Rs
At once Sham replied, “Give it to me, why didn’t you say that before?!.”

The Winning Goal!

Gopal was the only child for his parents
They wanted from others he to stand front
So they put him in a good school
But to study Gopal didn’t feel.

He played a lot of football
And he was good among them all
When his parents saw the report card
To others to show they were afraid.

But in school for state team selection
The coach recognized this great sensation
When other proud parents made their child’s card presentation
They were shocked to hear Gopal’s name in T.V. station.

Sweet Reciprocation

5 years old Gopal loved his grandma very much
And her birthday was approaching fast
He thought of celebrating in a special way
So in his grandma’s mind would forever stay.

Gopal’s grandma loved old birthday songs
Which Gopal decided to sing
Although he had a poor voice
He decided to try the grandma’s choice.

On the day of birthday
To grandma’s surprise Gopal sang aloud,
And said, “I sang because I love you.”
His grandma replied, “And I listened because I love you!.”

Faking To Precision

Gopal and his friends found ways to bunk class
Each day giving the lecturer different cause
One of the lecturer was very strict
Which one day put Gopal in a fix.

He was absent for many days
As he enjoyed touring places
Now he was looking for a legitimate reason
So his lecturer could listen.

Gopal’s friends found a solution
To tell lecturer he had an accident as the reason
And limp to class with a bad foot,
Happy Gopal asked, “Give me a chalk,
to remind me which one to!”.

Redrawing Geography

Fights among friends in class
To sit to get a comfortable place
Was what Gopal and his friend was doing
When teacher history lesson was teaching.

India and Pakistan fought three wars
And military personal was decorated with stars
After helping the country to extend boundary
By in battle defeating the enemy.

The map after war was drawn on board
While Gopal was fighting to get enough space
Catching it teacher asked, “What are you doing?”
He replied, “My boundaries I am redrawing!.”

Bringing happiness back!

Gopal was in second grade
While he was born the God big nose made
About his nose size everyone said
And Gopal felt very sad.

Mothers love their children such
They watch them through heart
Gopal’s mother understood her son’s pain
And tried for Gopal being happy to maintain.

Gopal friends about his nose teased
So he asked, “It is really that big?”
For it his mother consoled saying,
“It’s just that your face is too far back!”.

Solving little problems

Gopal was in KG class in school
And his teacher found her pupil hard to deal
The restless children were causing a lot of trouble
And teacher felt herself feeble.

Headmaster had ordered AC to be installed
At least to make the teacher feel cool
From sweating during summer school
When children are making her fool.

The representative from the company
while checking in the evening
Asked the teacher, “Any little problem?”
“No”, she replied smiling.
“All our little problem have gone home!.”
