A Tip

Dear parents, don't you agree
that you all quite regularly see
Your tiny pranksters shouting loud - 
Higher and shriller than they are allowed?

So here's the solution to end all your worries -
When your naughty little poppet stealthily scurries
To make blood-curdling, spine-tingling, uproarious noises,
Just scare them to silence with their headmasters' voices!

Weee after a long search managed to find a poem of yours to which I had not commented:) This is such a cute, sweet poem, Sneha! I suggest making a recording of the school's headmaster, and just switching it on according to situation and demand:) ~ Be good and take care. // paul

but just where is that headmaster's voice when you want it? I hardly know anyone that has that kind of way with kids, to make them take notice and behave. I like this one. I had an angel daughter and a little devil son when my kids were young. I never did learn the secret to making the boy behave!! (just glad he is doing well today!)
