Zainab's Writings

I would make sure that every child is happy and contented. Teachers would be friendly and well-trained. The children would chose by themselves what they want to do. Field trips would take place twice a month. If the classwork is too easy or challenging for the child, he/she can be moved to the class according to his/her mental level. There would be limited rules and regulations so the children can work freely. Sports period would be fun and lively. Older children can have activities of cooking/baking, if they want. There would be an enormous garden where children could go and observe nature. Students of Class 2 and above would be allowed to do experiments and inventions. Twice an year, the kids would plan and put on a play by themselves. This is my plan of a Dream School!

I recently wrote a Sonnet- The Shakespearean kind. I read about types of poems in a book, and so I tried to write it. Okay, I know a Sonnet is made up of beats and syllables, but I don't care if it doesn't fit the standards. I also know that a Sonnet is supposed to be about something serious and proper(at least Shakespeare' s  Sonnets were) but I wrote it the way I wanted to, as I write for myself. Anyways, here is it! Play Play is when you're on a slide, Play is to go and enjoy, Play could be to go and hide, That's what play is, a feeling of joy! Play is to be wild, not tame, Play is to enjoy, under the sun, Play is often called a game, Play is a name of having fun! Play is what you do at a park, Play is enjoying, together with friends, Play is when you're as happy as a lark, Play is something, that never ever ends. Play can be done, inside or out, Play is to hide, run and shout!

Here is an Acrostic Poem I wrote about my brother: Intelligent, Bold, Really Creative, Acrobat, Humurous, Enthusiastic, Enjoys Woodwork, Most Generous.

It was a nice, sunny, day. We had a tasty breakfast of sandwiches, got dressed, and set out for a walk. By 'we' I mean me, my siblings, parents, and a younger cousin. We were on a trip to Muscat. We were staying in my uncle's house. It was a really very enjoyable trip. We walked on, talking about road safety, and to hold hands while crossing the road. After walking for about 10 minutes, we reached Al Qurum Park.(orHadeeqa tul Qurum Attabibyah in Arabic) We went inside, and continued walking in the scorching heat, while taking LOTS of pictures. The park was very beautiful, with vast, green lawns here and there, and a winding path in the middle. There were various types of flowers, almost everywhere. We walked and walked. Finally,we reached the back door of the park. We walked some more, and finally, we reached our destination, The Children's Museum. It was a science Museum for kids of all ages. We went inside and did lots of experiments and learned new things. The Museum...

Today I wrote two limericks. Here they are! Shoes The ones, you buy, that are tall, Wearing them,you're sure to fall, They're some called 'slippers', That look like flippers, You can wear them around the hall. Books They're wonderful things called books, The ones who don't read them are crooks, They sometimes contain a story, After reading them you'll always glory, So don't ever trust them by their looks. I just love them!

Here's a poem I wrote yesterday about Colors.  Blue is the color of the wonderful sky,  Blue are the blue jays that fly up high.  Red are the sweetish strawberries,  Red is the shade of tasty cherries.  Yellow are the mangoes, so juicy and sweet,  Yellow is the sun that gives us heat.  Green is the color of vegies and leaves,  Green is the color of the tall, high, trees.  Pink is the color of lotion and cream,  Pink is ice cream, about which I dream.  Brown is the chocolate, I love to eat,  Brown is the soil, under your feet. Orange are the shades of sunrise, Orange is the meat, I eat with rice. The world is colorful, that's why it's so bright, Colors make us feel, nice and light.

Here are three things I'd like to wish for if I ever get a magic lamp with the genie inside. Firstly, I wish to go to Jannah, as there is no place on earth like Jannah, and Jannah is the desire of a  Muslim. Secondly, I wish that four of my (two maternal, two paternal)cousins, who have moved out of Karachi, would return at once and for ever to their home-city, Karachi, for I miss them all more than anything. Last, but not the least, I wish I could fly up high in the sky like a bird, whenever I want to. Even though flying is something I've never done(except the two times when I sat in an airplane), I know it's going to be great. It'd be so much fun, to loop the loop between the clouds or to fly upside down. Even flying normally would be fun!

I recently decided to edit my Acrostic Poem so it matches me exactly(I had made one before but it wasn't too good) So I did! Here's it!   Zany,   Animal Lover,   Innovative Thinker,   Neat Worker,   An Aspiring Artist,   Beautiful Girl.
