About Technology
In a world of wires, screens, and code,
Technology's path we boldly strode.
From the wheel's invention to the internet's birth,
It's reshaped our lives, for all its worth.
From smart phones small to satellites high,
Technology soars through the sky.
Bringing us closer, tearing down walls,
In this digital age, it enthralls.
But caution we must exercise as we progress,
For technology's power, we must assess.
With great innovation comes great responsibility,
To shape a future of endless possibility
So let us embrace this digital age,
With wisdom, compassion, and courage engage.
For in technology's heart, the future's key,
To build a world where all can be free.

Music
Music is an art,
It gives us emotional exult.
Music is the part and parcel in our life.
Which charmed our mind as reef.
It can expose our intention.
It also influences the deliberation.
Music is on of the beauty of nature,
We can enjoy it everywhere.
Nature's sound is one kinds of music.
The sound of birds mesmerizes us,
The sound of flowing river.
The quiet sound of trees,
The sound of the All wind-
All makes our mind flutter.
When I sing songs,
All the feelings of my mind
Slowly come out.
Singing and listening to music,
One of my hobbies.
When 1 listen to music,
I fell as if I entered a deep fantasty.
Whether it is believable or not
But, no lives without that.
Music removes our inferiority complex.
It brings peace to our mind.
The reality of life emerges through the music.

Wherever we look,
We see the variety of technology.
Technology is the best in the world now.
There is no end to it.
Computer is a popular technology.
There is no end to its expansion.
Life is tangent without technology.
This is why, life is better.
Where earlier agricultural technology was underdeveloped.
But today, it has improved greatly.
Technology is preventing us from wasting time.
Also increasing the importance of time.
The world is now at our fingertips.
Thanks to the mobile phone technology.
We are enjoying a bliss equivalent to heaven.
Basically, technology is our life now.

A Toy Snake
One day I was walking down the street. Looking ahead a bit, I saw a snake coming behind me. Where I went, the snake also went. I was going to my friend's house but it followed me. I didn't see the snake when I went to sleep at night and I thought it would not come again. But I woke up in the morning and saw the snake next to my bed. One day it didn't come with me anymore. I looked for the snake but could not find it. After two months the snake came again. In an accident that snake was ran over by a truck. Later I found out that the snake was a toy snake. The snake was exactly like a real snake. Everything is possible with the digital technology.

Writing Poems While Asleep
she dreams of fragrant sausage
spitting in the frying pan
broken-hearted
she cannot eat it
another night she dreams
she is standing on her head
performing ablutions
in the nether regions
now she dreams of her kidnapped
therapist, ransom demanded
when not paid, he is returned
secrets are not
Sanctum Sanctorum
pull comforter over head
snuggle into dark hidey-hole
fade into the warmth
of rhythmic breath
spin quiet
into dreams
Cat’s Nip
white mantle
shrouds clear chalice
new elixir
for gut pain
cat bounds to counter
tips over brew
body tenses
pink tongue licks
sodden feet whisk
through cat door
she’d rather die
then take the waters

Technology has improved our lives for the better. People are able to live safely because of technology. Modern age is unimaginable without technology. Through technology we can all keep each other updated. Looking back to the past, it can be seen that ancient people used pigeons to send letters from one place to another to keep them in touch with each other. But in today's age, technology can send one's news within seconds through mobile phone or computer.
Previously, people couldn't have the facility of using the technology. But nowadays people can easily keep connected of different countries through technology because of mobile phone, other network and social communication. Today, the entire world has come to the hands of people, thanks to technology. In our country earlier people used to harvest paddy by hand with great difficulty, but in the present era, farmers are able to thresh rise in the field very easily with the help technology - rice threshing machines. As a result the farmers do not suffer much.
People of the world have been able to live comfortably due to modern devices; it is possible because of technology. Earlier people used to take a lot of time to go from one place to another. But now through technology people can easily move from one place to another place. So, there are many positive aspects of technology but it also has some negative aspects too. Its abuse can cause a lot of damage to the world. Technology is used in all crimes including, terrorism, murder, drug dealing etc. After all, if technology is used on beneficial way, our world will see a bright future one day..

Sia
Sia in the music industry is the seer
And you don’t need any beer
To hear
Her heart wrenching dulcet tones that as l pen this piece are here
I can see the rainbow
We will take a bow
For her crafty work which are like a drawn bow
Ready to spring into action of taking and sweeping the masses of their feet, wow
She has the gall to raise her voice at a falsetto pitch
That will have those with the temerity to emulate her ditch it
Her songs do not have any kind of glitch
As electronic executed they are perfectly flawless and you won’t flinch
Instead you will sing along at the top of your voice
It will melt even the ice
You will have a paradise slice
Listening at Sia’s vocals at no exorbitant price
Makhadzisa
She sings like a bird
And her songs continue to be heard and played
She is the queen of the Venda born and bred
With teachings that value families and how they should be fed
We will continue to sing her praise
Because she sings with so much grace
Touching the hearts of the young and old, vanquishing dread
As the music flows in our bodies, tightly and loosely clad
Such kind of music is for the Gods
This is why we listen in hordes
Addicted to her tunes on repeat in spades
Glad that there are still singers that inspires confidence in the trade
All hail Makhadzisa
A symbol of how hard work pays
For that reason she is here to stay
And naysayers are not going to do anything about it, nay

Magical Book
A long time ago, when I was studying in Chapainawabganj Government High School, we wanted to go on a class study tour. But our teacher was saying that education tour is not possible at that moment. But they will talk to the head teacher and try their best to take us on the educational tour. Several days passed after that. Then suddenly one day at the beginning of class, our class teacher gave us a good news. Our class teacher told us that the headmaster has given permission to take us on the educational tour. However, he asked the teachers and students to fix a place together. At that time, many people were confused where to go. But finally we decided to go Mohasthan Garh. But some of our classmates were saying that they want to go but their parents won't give permission. So, our class teacher talked to their parents. Finally their parents allowed them to go. Then our day goes by.
On the day we left for the educational tour. We left at 10 am and arrived at the spot at 3 pm. We were all tired, so no one went back. The next day we were touring the whole Mohasthan Garh from morning. When the sun was right above our head, we all were going back to have lunch. But then a strange statue fell in front of me. I approached the memorial and looked around the statue.
Then an open book caught my eye on the back of the statue. Teacher Aman was calling me when I took the book. I didn't tell the teacher about the book at that time. Then we left for home in the evening. Then it was too late after returning home so I didn't open the book. The next day I opened the book and after opening the book I saw that there was nothing written on it. I thought someone's book might have gone there by mistake. And I put the book on my reading table. After that I turned off the light in my room and slept. In such a situation, suddenly a colorful light starts to shine from the book. I was very surprised. But I opened the book somehow. When I opened the book, there were many writings floating there, but the writings seemed to be of an ancient language. I wasn't awake much longer. I took the book to my teacher the next day. I told him everything. He heard all this and told me that there might be some secret which shouldn't be revealed. So, we should keep it in the museum. So Amika and my teacher left the book in the museum. Maybe the book is of some use to them.
