My Wish To Santa

I go to bed, Nice and early, Hoping Santa would come here instead, Of skipping my community entirely. Down below, beneath the tree, I kept mince pie and orange juice for thee, Wishing you wouldn’t prove my biggest fear, Of abandoning the carrots for your reindeer. Up, I wake, On Christmas Day, Sliding down the rail; Dead stop before the tree, The disappointment made my knees go weak. I think back to the many letters I wrote to you, Asking for a yo-yo and not for free. You made my biggest fear come true, Abandoning the food under the tree. Slowly, I start to wonder: What makes you miss my house? Maybe it’s the mess, Or my lift’s access. Maybe it’s the snack. Maybe you don’t like it. So next year, if you come back, I’ll make sure it isn’t it. What do you think of choosing yourself? What do you want for you and your elf? In my gadget, choose what you wish. It’ll be there in an instant, as long as you fulfil my wish.

Human Robots

Just imagine, somewhere in the middle of California, students just staring into emptiness, but actually seeing a screen that other people can't; people cheating in exams without the examiner noticing a thing, though they were actually seeing a Titanium-coated optical metamaterial screen that others can't see, to look for answers. Dr. Michel Krage was immersed in this  project that had piqued the interest of the CIA. They were aware of his work, but the specifics remained a mystery. "Our children are displaying alarming behavior," Mr. Brindleworth urgently declared in a meeting." We suspect it's the work of a man who goes by the name Dr. Krage. He appears to be implanting something in the kids without their knowledge, but we're at a loss as to how or why." "I've also heard that he is working with an accomplice," the head of the CIA, John L. Ratcliffe, said, "find out more and report in a week. Now, it might only be a handful of kids...

The What-ifs

"What if I fall off a tree?" "What if I get stung by a bee?" "What if I sink in the pool?" "What if I am made a fool?" These are, for some people, The biggest monsters of their brain. These make their mind cripple, And their daring spirit would drain. For others, these may become their greatest heroes, For these unruly thoughts do not disrupt them. They have the ability to to think past this chaos, And that destroys them.

My Beautiful Blue Bay

 I saw a butterfly on a rainy day, It was flying on its way, Towards the blue blue bay, Which reflected the sun's ray. Its wings were gray, Merging with the bay, "Oh lord," I pray, "What a beautiful sight you showed me today." The sky was yellow and a startling red, I thought it was time to go to bed. I looked at the clock, But it was still 7 o'clock. The wind was rushing with lots of might, I couldn't take my eyes off the sight. The butterfly was nowhere to be seen in the night, I guessed it took flight at the wind's might. It was a very, very dark night, No stars were shining bright, The bay was illuminated with bright light, The only source of light that night. I love the bay on a rainy night!                                                                                   ...

The Game of Experience

 Long ago, a saint named Sabaraki got a very wise realization. That our human species would become wiser if they experienced all the obstacles they might or might not go through in life. That they might be more empathetic towards people whose lives are bound to be difficult for them. One might realize that life is much more than sitting and watching people around them suffer. That they can change the world for the better. That this realization cannot be realized in the one life they have as a human. As wise as Sabaraki was, he was also an ambitious man. He believed he could make something by which man could realize all that within a few minutes. Hence, he challenged himself to do it.  He worked for 12 years straight, using all the power he had gotten through his many years of meditation. He felt like he was in a trance. He was so engrossed in the process that he neither ate nor drank anything nor took a break at all. After 12 years of hard work, his project was completed. He h...

Marcus in 2040 (Part 2)

"You can't leave me here forever!"Marcus growled to the older Marcus. It has been 2 days since Marcus had been trapped in the future. He was devastated when he saw Aaria and her husband destroy the blue pill. "Of course not, dear boy," the older Marcus said, "you'll stay only until we find a way to get to the present. Then everybody in the world will be replaced by us." Marcus was shocked. He hadn't expected the monsters to be this  ruthless. He had to do something about it. Quickly! One evening, when Marcus was walking on the streets, he went to an electronic shop and asked if they had any of his parents' inventions. "Oh, we have many," the shopkeeper said."We have the Watch Shield, the Dress-up Machine, th- "Do you have the time machine?"Marcus asked impatiently. The shopkeeper was surprised. "The time machine is in the house, abandoned ten years ago when Mr and Mrs Raven died." "Where is this house...

Marcus in 2040 (Part 1)

Marcus was an intelligent grade 5 kid with two brilliant inventors for parents. His parents, Mr and Mrs Raven, were the people who invented the machine which could take people either to the past or future. On the last day of school, in class- "Attention, everyone. You should all write an essay about how you think the world will be in 2040 as this summer's homework," the Teacher said. "Yes, mam." "Mommy! Mommy!" Marcus called after he came home. He barged into the kitchen to find his mother making tea." Our Teacher told us to write an essay about life in 2040," he explained breathlessly." Can I use the time machine for this?" "No ", his mother said sternly, "There was a message in the group about it. It said what you think  the world will be like in 2040, different from  how  it'll be. So there's no need for you to go in the time machine." "But mom! I've been waiting to go in it. This is  the perf...
