Poetry Collection #11: List Poems by Rishik Grover

1.DIWALI

Diwali is my favorite festival,

It has so many fun things to do,

I don’t even know where to start.

The lighting of Diyas,

The bursting of fireworks,

The creation of rangolis,

The sweetness of delicacies,

The fun of opening gifts,

The meetings in family gatherings,

The fragrance of new clothes,

The hustle and bustle during renovation and cleaning,

The sound before community celebrations,

The suspense of storytelling,

The warmth provided by bonfires,

The richness of cultural diversity,

The donation of charity,

The planning behind holidays,

The bright display of lights,

The fun in dance and music,

The confusion in shopping and so much more.

These are some of the many reasons,

As to why Diwali is my favorite festival.

It’s the lights, sweets, and happy feeling,

2. MY REFRIGERATOR

My refrigerator is the biggest in the world,

It can fit an entire country’s food,

It’s so big that it can contain…

A couple of cubes of cheese,

An adequate amount of butter,

A big fat hefty chicken,

And a plump turkey,

Plenteous boxes of fish and,

a sufficient amount of milk,

A big plate of pears,

And the meat from some bears,

A suitable amount of ice cream,

And an extravagant quantity of juice,

A decent portion of my leftover cake

And a satisfying number of chocolates.

I bet you wish you had my refrigerator,

After all no refrigerator can fit even half,

The amount of food that my refrigerator can.

3. BIRTHDAY

Yesterday was my friend’s birthday,

It was the most fun one, he had ever had,

He had his head over his heels,

And he was sitting pretty, like a dog with two tails,

He was feeling high in a fool’s paradise,

He felt pumped up like a happy bunny with not a care in the world,

He was pleased as punch and as happy as a lark,

He was grinning from ear to ear,

Feeling tickled pink, bursting with joy,

He looked like he was on top of the world,

On cloud nine, you could say,

He was over the world, having a ball,

Grinning like a Cheshire cat,

feeling in high spirits, like sunshine and rainbows.

Oh, how I wish that this was my birthday.

Even I want to be pleased as punch.
