Raadhaa Rhymes 7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

61.
Raadhaa tries to cook
With the help of an English book;
But ‘coriander’
Leaves her in wonder
And fling in something by hook or by crook!

62.
Raadhaa loves flowers,
On trees or in bowers,
On dresses
Or in tresses
In bouquets or in bunches!

63.
Raadhaa never saw a mouse,
Save the one in the Cartoon Shows,
Or on her dad’s
Mouse pads;
So did the pussy-cat in her house!

64.
But Raadhaa sees honey bees
Around the hive on her mango trees,
Buzzing around
In a humming sound;
And wonders where their honey goes!

65.
But wasps don’t rasp,
Don’t try to grasp!
Leave them alone
Till they build in your home;
Smoke them gently, they’ll let go their clasp!

66.
Raadhaa watches a beetle,
Black as a kettle,
Sitting quiet
Like a monk;
And setting off like a shuttle!

67.
Elephant is called Jumbo;
He loves shoots of bamboo;
He’s really BIG
Unlike the little pig;
But both their tails are so-so!

68.
If you see a snake
Don’t shake or shriek!
Snakes are cool,
Don’t be a fool;
Give a leeway, she will slither away!

69.
Kangaroo
Is a Bangaroo;
She hops so much such
With her kids in her pouch;
They’ve no Khangaroo!

70.
Donkey is special!
Unlike horse or a mule
He loves his leisure;
Eats at his pleasure;
Carries loads and goods
Without any murmur;
When he brays or prays
The whole town would shudder!
Donkey is SPECIAL!
