An Honest Friend Is a Good Friend

"Oh my God how lovely you are looking  in this dress , pink color suits you so well" . A girl says to her friend . "Ah! look at you , you are looking like a rock star in your new hair cut' . A boy compliments his friend ." Your maths project is cool boss , you will sure get ten on ten on the chart", A friend tells to another.   But do they really mean it ? Are that boy and girl actually looking so good? Is the math project good enough to get perfect ten ?  Or their friends are saying this" just to please them" ?               

Now look at the other side of picture." Your pink dress is  o.k but I think an orange colored dress will suit you more", a girl  says to her friend. "I am sorry bro but your old hair style was better than this hair cut ", a boy said to his closest friend . "Your maths project is nice but not good enough to get ten on ten ,you should add some more solved sums to it" . A friend gives advice to his friend ."Honest and frank opinions". 

So what kind of friends will you prefer ? A friend who tells you every thing about you frankly and honestly or a friend who always praises you just to make you happy?'Think about it ".

                                           A poem by famous Persian poet "SAADI"
                                                 

                                            I am displeased with the company of friends ,

                                            To whom my bad qualities appear to be good,

                                            They fancy my faults are virtues and perfection,

                                            My thorns they believe to be rose and jasmine,

                                             Say where is the bold and quick enemy,

                                            To make me aware of my defects?

The Right Move ( Short Story)

                                      
People called him "Thin Lee". The reason for calling him with that name was that he was a skinny boy who knew some basic rules of Judo and considered himself as the" Next Bruce Lee". He had a big misunderstanding  about him that he was"Master of Judo" and every one is so impressed by this skill of him and nobody will dare to take the fight with him . No one cleared his misunderstanding because they didn't want to loose the chance of laughing at him behind his back . Everyone joked about him and enjoyed talking about him. 

One day some  kids told Thin Lee , "Bro ,a new boy has come to live in our colony and we told him about you that how good you are in judo and how brave you are, and the  boy said bad things  about you and challenged us that he can beat you".(Obviously they were lying, just to have fun )
 Thin Lee said "Let me see him, where is that coward who speaks behind my back"  Without thinking for a second that the kids were actually provoking him for fight.The naughty kids told him that the boy is in the playing field..Thin Lee went to the field followed by those kids . 
                                                                 

'Look! there he is  !One kid whispered in Lee's ear. And what Thin Lee saw was beyond his imagination, the boy was as big and strong as a little "SUMO."Thin Lee at once forgot all  about  his so called  Judo skills and got too scared . "Yes what do you want ?" The big boy asked Thin Lee ." Oh just nothing, I heard a lot about you and just wanted to meet you . "Thin Lee put his hand forward to shake hands with big boy. While he was doing this he heard  the giggling sound coming from back, he turned back and saw the kids who provoked him were laughing . 
From that day Thin Lee stopped to show off  because he realized the reality that how people fooled him because of that.Good for Thin Lee.                                                                                        -Aunt Mary 

Our Dreams (Poem)

 
Dreams are happy and dreams are sad 
dreams are good and dreams are bad. 

Dreams are funny and dreams are naughty,
sometimes dreams are queer and funky. 

Our dreams take us to another world,
our dreams make us happy or scared.                 
                                                      -Aunt Mary
                                                                     


    

WITCHES, WITCHES JUST BE THERE, PLEASE DO NOT COME HERE!!

Witches are scary , but we enjoy watching them in movies, television serials and plays don't we ?We love to read a book which has a character of  a witch because it makes a book more interesting . Though we never, ever want to face a witch in real life . Oh God ! Nobody wants you witches, in reality  , but please ,  just remain in movies and books , because you are one of the most loved characters of scary movies and children's stories, we love to see you on big and small screens and also in books.
                                       

Your wicked smile says all about your intentions , your claw-like finger nails are too scary to look at.  We know about your deal with devil and are also aware of your dirty black magic with the help of which you can ruin the beautiful lives of others.

You want to scare us with your weird looking pointy hat, your ugly black dress , your long nose with wart. No, we don't want to feel your presence in whispering of falling  leaves. So stay away from our world and entertain us in virtual world. Because there is no fun to watch a horror film without feeling scared and you are the best creature for scaring and entertaining the people. 
                                   

         
Witch , Witch (a poem by - Rose Fyleman )

  “Witch, witch, where do you fly?”...                                                       “ Under the clouds and over the sky.

   Witch,witch what do you eat? 
  “Little black apples from Hurricane Street.”            

   “Witch, witch, what do you drink?”... 
  “Vinegar, blacking and good red ink.”


 Witch, witch, where do you sleep?”... 
“Up in the clouds where pillows are cheap.”
