The Feeling of Getting Lost in a Book
When I read a book,
I lose sense of what's around,
with unimaginable creatures,
like multicolored baboons or hellhounds.
When I read a book,
I leave everything behind,
To enter the story,
With the power of my mind.
Imagining the actions taking place,
in front of me,
through my mind's eye,
I become what I want to be.
In some places its funny,
and I break into peals of laughter,
While in some I think,
There should be a happily ever after.
I like adventure and mystery best,
with comedy in the rest.
I LOVE BOOKS

Animals
Animals love us,
and we love them,
So take action
to save the same.
Big cats from the African savanna
or Orangutans from the Borneo forests,
the world if full of creature
found only in places rarest.
Birds also are important,
Some are found in American woods,
But I found many, right in my neighborhood.
Amphibians and reptiles,
all lay eggs,
many of them
may dare to eat cleggs!
Ostriches, beavers and caribous,
drakes, eels and kangaroos,
quails, seals and camels,
arboreal animals and mammals.
Moles, sharks and rhinoceros,
fawns, parrots and hippopotamus,
Polliwogs, does and baboons,
Salamanders, budgies and racoons.
Animals of every kind and more,
so go out there and explore!

Navya Dagar Poem
The Earth says
Be aware
That all its beauty
We must share.
The Earth says
Keep me clean
In the sea and
In the green.
The Earth says
breathe clear
Clean the air
which we hold dear.
The Earth says
Change your ways
Year by year and
Day and day.
The Earth says
Give me a hand
Ditch plastic
Recycle what you can.
It doesn't have to be much
If we each just do our share
So take out time
To show Earth you care.

Navya Dagar Poem
There once was a child
questioned everything she did
her parents admonished her
for peering into
the workings of the world,
but the child
poor child
couldn't possibly understand
what did she do wrong,
and the wise old man
said to her that
t'was not her fault
for 'tis the world
who should be punished
for the fault often lies
not in the doing
but in the way we see the doing.

Navya Dagar Poem
Going down memory lanes,
Looking through your messages
Loving every bit of you,
Smiling at the jokes you made.
I wish you were here,
Wish you weren't gone,
Wish we were still together,
Singin' a happy song.
Not a day went by,
When I didn't see that smile of yours,
Days then were made of gold,
But they didn't last long.
Rolled in the darkness,
Unfolding piece by piece,
forcing us into separation,
There wasn't a minute of peace.
Nothing appealed anymore,
Except burrowing myself,
In the mountain of my emotions,
Because even though you're still out there,
There's not a sliver of hope of getting you back.

Navya Dagar Poem
My First Sunrise
The sun starts to shine,
Golden wheat catches the light,
Flowers and buds bloom open,
To bask in the sunlight.
Winds blow in from the east,
Bringin' the scent of tea,
Oh, the breeze that hits me in the face,
How fresh it feels.
I'm running in the field,
From enemies of my past,
From those I no longer care for,
Oh, how it feels to be free.
For I am hope,
who shan't be restrained,
no more no longer,
I watch my first ever sunrise and smile...

Navya Dagar Poem
Got up this morning,
To follow the same old routine,
That never changes anymore,
But I stop and my breath hitched.
Through the window,
I see...
A painting made in the sky,
Hues of brilliant vibrant colours.
Through the window,
I see...
A painting in the water,
The ripples dancing across.
Through the window,
I see...
The world from brand new eyes,
where strokes tell stories.
I sit and start painting,
Pouring my heart out,
To see,
A brand new world waiting for me.

Navya Dagar Poem
What do you think of
when I'm in front of you?
Am I annoying?
Or do I talk too little?
Do I look pretty?
Is my attitude in check?
Don't you think of me
as a good friend?
Do you even care?
Am I not perfect enough?
Is she better than me?
What did I do wrong?
What's the fault with me?
Now I begin to wonder
Does it really matter
what others think of me
When I don't think of myself as deserving?
Because no one will love me
Until I start loving myself.

Navya Dagar Poem
Four blossoms fall
coming to a rest
on the crest of a wave
rippling across the fathomless lake.
Three flowers flowing
sweet wind blows
the scent of fresh buns
in the wake of a glorious sun
Two cherry blossoms float
a streetlight shining upon
the lone bench embracing the night
moths pining after the celestial crescent.
A single bud blooms
new hope bursts forth
sparks spring old and young
blooming into spring.

Navya Dagar Poem
When little kids ask for stories
Regale them of our lore and its glories.
Listening with rapt notice
Tales of champions and menaces.
One and all exclaim with awe
Hearing about our Gods.
They don't die
Live within us and fly.
Burn like a phoenix
Survive with their tactics.
Look beyond the veil
When the fiercest quail.
Never lose their light
Even in the darkest of nights.
With a love so perfect
They attack and protect.
For the ones they care
Their souls laid bare.
Honor their word with pride
Till their last glide.
So hush, my child
Heed the noble and wild.
As all princes and peasants
knelt before our legends.
