If I lived in the stone age, what would I do?

There would be no TV or airplanes or internet too

There would be no Netflix to watch in my free time

To buy the things I need, I wouldn’t even have a dime

How would I talk to someone If I had something to say?

May be my hand gestures would come into play

I am sure I would be the first one to discover fire

Tree leaves sewn together would be my attire

All the wild animals would become my friends

All day and night, in great fun, we would spend

Out of all the jobs, I would take up farming

I think living in the forest would be pretty charming

I would make the cutest cart out of wood

Live in a cozy cave and eat many delicious fruits

I would climb on many tall trees

And get some sweet honey from the bees

In the stone age, there would be no rules to follow

I would swim in the rivers not so shallow

I would make tools using stone, wood and sticks

And make a comfy house by inventing bricks

In the stone age, there would be no school

How would I learn new things? That’s not cool.

I wanted to write about my best friend forever

A friend, so precious, whom I could lose never

Friends I have many but the most special is just one

A friend who would never leave me sad or alone

My friend inspires me always and teaches me wonderful things

Together we visit some magnificent magical places

I am pretty sure you know whom I am taking about

My best friends are books, let me shout out loud

Books give me lots of love and pleasure

My library, full of books, is my true treasure

Books take me on extraordinary adventures of many kind

In so many ways, it sharpens my young mind

If you haven’t read any book, start one now

I am sure you will be enchanted and greatly wowed

As it is said ‘A book is a dream you can hold in your hands’

Grab a book and you will surely understand!

 INTRODUCTION POEM WRITTEN FOR HER TEACHERS

MY INTRODUCTION 

I got an idea to write my introduction in a poem

You will get to know the person who I am

Let me start with my name that is Anaya Sheth

I am not a little girl but a young lady of 8

I love to write poems and stories as you can see

Shy, Smart, Voracious reader that is me

Dancing Bharatnatyam and playing keyboard is also my passion

I am kind, helpful and full of compassion

My favourite subjects and English, EVS and Maths

Hindi and Gujarati I will have to master, I guess

That pretty much sums up who I am

Thank you for listening my dear friends and respected ma’am

Thank you for making this year so much brighter

I am so fortunate that you are my teacher

Think about you and so many adjectives come to mind

Inspiring, caring, nurturing and oh so kind!

I am grateful to you for all your guidance

You explained everything with lots of patience

You taught me with so much love

All my mischiefs, you quickly forgave

You helped me thrive at every step

Your warmth took away all my stress

Thank you for your affection and praise

You led me through the year with your gentle ways

You made the school so much fun everyday

I will cherish our memories forever, let me tell you today

Just one poem is not enough to convey all I want to say

You have been a blessing to me in every kind of way!
