Kid talk


WHAT is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?—
No time to stand beneath the boughs,
And stare as long as sheep and cows:
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass:
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night:
No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance:
No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began?
A poor life this if,
full of care,We have no time to stand and stare.
W H Davies

Got this poem from my nephew..This is one good thingwith my nieces and nephews ..Get them to read some poem,do a dance step for u..will keep them occupied and u happy :-)
After hearing the poem i was surprised and told shubham(nephew) to write it for me..And he did write it with no spelling mistakes..Cool I was impressed..


U really come to know quite a lot..In conversation with one of my nieces she mentioned about giving up post of head of a group..On enquiring further came to know about this group which helps other students to cope up with studies..and there are some rules u should abide by if u are head of group.. like even if someone asks u or ur copy 2 days before exam u got to give it..So u got the brightest as the heads.(nobody willa ask otherwis). Quite a meritious system and it is their idea to be ahead of other sections..Not managed by their teachers they are not even aware of such a thing..Cool Na


Another anecdote..Mishti's mom scolded her and after few mins bhaiya did the same(unaware of that she was recently scolded by bhabhi)..
Mishti's reply: Hein bhagwaan hum agle janam mein is ghar mein kabhi bhi paida nahi honge..(God make sure in next birth I am not born in the same house)
And she is hardly three years old..
Kids these days are a smart lot :-) And they say things which make u think..

Sometime I think they should recommend kid talk as relaxation therapy :-)

Note:Above pic was taken in Mysore near KRS Dam.

Yeh kid therapy should do good for all once in a while. Bill Cosby had a similar talk show for kids and boy what fun it was to watch it.

No, Anupam kher's show was something else, it was pretty serious but sweet. Bill cosby's was hillarious, sometimes embarassing.

Yes younger genration is always smart, plain evolution at work
