Raadhaa Rhymes 2

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

11.
Raadhaa goes to the Fruit Bazaar
Mangoes, Apples hazaar hazaar;
But leaf or bud,
Flower or seed,
Nothing beats in beauty Anaar!

12.
Raadhaa goes to the sea shore
To hear the waves roar and roar;
Sun and sand,
Shells in hand;
Ships and boats more and more!

13.
Sea is blue, at times green;
Sun is seen in between
Hidden in clouds:
Fluffy shrouds,
Breeze on cheeks smells ozone.

14.
Nets in boats, fish in net:
Almost dead but tails still beat;
When fish are plenty,
Gulls get bounty,
Chased by boatmen:'hush, hoot, het!'.

15.
Waves hit the shore, break into foam.
Beach is awash, crabs run home,
Feet get wet,
Sun is set;
Birds fly ashore, time to go home!

16.
Raadhaa goes to Hyderabad
And its cousin Sick-Indra-Bad:
Not one-two but Char-Minar,
And its sister Pearl Bazaar;
Both these Bads not too bad!

17.
Raadhaa plucks a rose,
Its soft petal glows;
Rose has a thorn,
Evening or morn,
In poetry or in prose!

18.
Raadhaa goes shopping,
Shop to shop hopping;
Back at home,
What a shame:
Prices are whopping!

19.
Raadhaa loves Chips
In oil that drips;
Aaloo
Ya Kelaa
Chips fatten hips!

20.
Raadhaa loves books
That are full of pics
Of birds on trees
And monkeys
Showing off their tricks!
