A Trader Who Eats And Sleeps.

There is a trader who only eats and sleeps.He can’t stay awake for long.

In ten hours of his business time, you would find either dozing or eating nuts or munching a bar of chocolate.

If you ask him, “Aren’t you interested in selling your wares?”

The trader would reply ” Please, let me sleep in peace.I am busy dreaming about my future stores.”

And people would leave him at that.

Later on his wife took over the store and it did good business. Atleast, it was better than being run by her sleepy husband.

Yet, you could find the trader sleeping in his shop.He used to sleep sitting on a chair in a corner of his shop.

Once his father-in-law visited the store and found him sleeping, while his daughter was running the store.

At night when the trader returned home, the father-in-law, threatened to take his daughter back home, if he didn’t stop sleeping and eating.

The trader was so afraid of his father-in-laws dictum, that from the next day, he kept on washing his face every half an hour to remain awake. He managed to run his shop. Though his yawning wouldn’t stop.

Why he was so scared of his father-in-law? I will write about it some other time.

Adios!

I Love My Party.

My long black hair,

Ironed and straight.

My shirt is white,

And my pant is red.

When makeover is complete.

I am ready for a party.

Ready for my friends,

Whom I will meet there.

We will dine, drink and dance and go absolute.

We will be finished in a mess.

And will be out from the crowd.

I have stressed myself.

And myself got out.

On my bed I fell asleep.

Next I will think when the sun will peep.

It will touch my eyes,

And will say why all these,

When I am so nigh.

Adios!

Two Children Playing Cricket.

In my society,two small children play cricket regularly.They are best friends.

I know both of them.

One evening while we were taking a walk, Ma and me, both of us saw them playing.

We completed few rounds of walking and sat down on a bench.Those kids were playing nearby. The game had taken a turn. It was a tough competition between the two of them.

The one who wins, would get the best seat in the bus the next day. So the little chap who was batting, was trying his best to cover the stumps with his whole body and with his bat. While the fellow who was bowling was aiming more at the middle stump.

Neither the batsman was able to score more runs nor was the bowler was able to take the wicket of his friend.

It was a funny sight to watch them play. We got up and went out to buy few groceries and when we came back they were still playing and both them were giving tough competition to each other. We laughed in our hearts and went home. The outcome of the match was unknown to us. Yet whosoever won the match would definitely get the best seat in the school bus the next day.

Adios!

Three Comedy Actors.

During a recent visit to a big mall, I saw three comedy actors together having a chat.

One of them had acted as a cop in a long running comedy show, while the other two regularly feature in television adds or in comedy serials. I remembered the tomfoolery and the behaviour of actor who had played the role of the cop. As a cop in the serial, he used to be constantly scolded by his father for being a coward and try as much as he would, he couldn’t make his parents much happy. His efforts to please them would make us laugh when we used to watch that serial.

The actors are not too well known but they are masters in their genre.

Seeing the three of them together, I couldn’t help but smile, as I could see those people standing in front of me who made us (Ma and me) smile. Ma too smiled. My aunt also acknowledged the fact that the three of them were actors.

Comedy is such a genre where there are many comedians, who try everything to earn money and to make people laugh but very few artists have the ability to bring out comedy naturally in their acting.

The three of them are such actors.

It was a pleasant surprise for us.

Adios!

Did You Find My Pen?

Did you find my pen?

Which was and is mine?

Did you find my pen?

Which I had kept safely in the drawer.

The pen belongs to my dearest friend,

Who had given it to me as a token of our friendship.

Now he has moved to another land,

But still writes to me.

Please don’t keep it with you,

Give it back as soon as possible,

I am waiting for your reply.

Oh! What beautiful and wonderful news,

I have found that pen,

Its with me,

Safe and sound.

I apologize for disturbing you.

Hip-hip-hooray.

Yes!

Adios!
