Poem - If I Could Paint In The Air

 If I Could Paint In the Air



If I could paint in the air
I would paint all day without a care
Sketches, doodles and portraits
Landscapes, cartoons and ,myriad shapes

Maybe some rockets to the moon
For humankind it would be a boon
Or maybe new cities and some schools
With only my paintbrush as a tool 

But the bliss of creating this magic
I would not hoard with myself
I would share the glory with my kith and kin 
All the magical paintbrushes on my shelf

There would be less misery and more artists
with paintbrushes clamped in their fists
There would be more joy, care and more share
If only I could paint in the air


This poem was sent for a writing competition at an international level organised by Little Scoop. This poem stood first in Telangana State.

My Thoughts On Screen Time

  Screen Time This is undoubtedly one of the most popular conflicts between kids and their parents - Screen Time. It can be quite frustrating when your parents switch the TV off from their phone (it is possible) in the middle of an important or a tense scene in a show or if you’re a gamer, then when you are about to win. The popular response of parents when you ask for a little more time is “Why don’t you spend the same amount of time studying as you spend playing games or on the TV” or “I will switch off all the electronics if you don’t go and study or read a book right now” or something of that sort. In today’s time almost all the means of entertainment require a screen. Of course there are outdoor sports but you cannot play them at any given time of the day and you will also get exhausted playing them  at a point. I think kids should get a say in their screen time. Obviously they too are equally concerned about their eyes. One common misconception about screen time is that screen ti

4 Free Search Engines That Help The Environment

 Climate change is a problem that most of us know about but don't do much about it. This problem can very well be the Ragnarok that ends life on Earth. However most of us don't realise that with changes as simple as changing our search engine, we can do our own little bit to save the environment. These search engines are similar to what you might be using right now and the search results too are excellent.  The only difference is the change of the search engine. So here are 4 search engines that you should change to right now! 1) Ecosia - Some of you might already know about this search engine. So this search engine plants trees every time you search the web. It is entirely free to switch to. It also shows how many trees you have planted on the right top corner of your screen. You can change this as your search engine by simply going to Settings - Search Engine and then selecting Ecosia. They also have a YouTube channel where you can find more about their cause. https://www.you

The Godly Mountains - Short Story

  "In the dimming, eastern lights, you shall find On the top of the godly hills, lays a magnificent sight A fruit so pure, clean and pristine An apple of gold, shall be seen" These words kept ringing in Anruk's mind as he traversed the Shivalik hills. They are the youngest mountain chain of the Greater Himalayas and the hills that Anruk thought were the hills referred to in the riddle. He walked along the slope, one step at a time. His heart pounding and his lungs hurting. Anruk and another hundred such participants had taken part in a reality show which promised a huge cash reward. Only ten participants had made it to the finals and Anruk was one of them. The money would enable him to start his own business which would hopefully enable him and his family a better life and finally escape the demon of poverty. The riddle had referred to the Shivalik hills and Anruk was certain of this. After all the word "Shivalik” literally means ‘tresses of Lord Shiva’. Unfortunat
