 The day you died

It rained in torrents

Daily Mantra

I’ll start doing my work at 3 o’clock  But for now, let me just rest and drop  On the glorious couch - the favourite place of the house  Where I sigh, I groan and most importantly, slouch. Just thinking about work makes my eyelids heavy  But to do that dreary task I must be ready. So I get up, stretch and lumber around  As I search for my motivation (sadly never to be found). I walk towards the fridge and see what I can salvage  To fill my big belly that even God can’t manage.

So it won’t be long before they start walking again.” explained grandpa. “I can’t wait for it !” exclaimed Shashi.  2. WHY IS THE MOON IN THE SKY?  Asked Shashi . “Long back there was no moon. People were afraid of the dark nights for witches , evil   spirits...
