The Storm When the clouds grumble& the wind rustles,all the things tumbles. The clouds shout in joy,breaking through the houses just like a toy.The lightnings come rushing,along with the wind gushing.

Have You Heard Of “Spring” ? Have you heard of “Spring”?A season bringing great ecstasy,For both the elderly and their offspring.Spring is a season which blooms mysterious fantasy,Into the heart of curiosity.

A Wish ‘Freedom’ After days & nights,from the wet soil peeks a little child. From many obstacles it comes out,to see a new world around.
