Jimmy the snail was a very slow walker, A very slow eater, a very slow talker. It took him ten minutes to climb up a flower, And eating a leaf, that took him an hour! It really was lucky his house was his shell Or going to bed would take hours as well. When others said: “Jimmy, why are you …

I’m Slither the Snake, I might give you a fright! I can stretch out quite straight, Or curl up quite tight. Although I’iv no legs, I can move very fast, And I swim across water If I want to get past.

भारतीय संस्कृति में बहुदेववाद की प्रतिष्ठा है, यह सत्य है किंतु भगवान शिव को ही भोले बाबा के रूप में माना गया है। इनकी अनेक नामों से पूजा की जाती है और प्रत्येक नाम इनके गुणों को प्रकाशित करता है। अपने भक्तों के दुख दारिद्रय को दूर करने के लिए बहुत जल्दी प्रसन्न होने के कारण इन्हें आशुतोष कहा जाता …

One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impair’d the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress, …

Shall I compare thee to a Summer’s day? Thou are more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And Summer’s lease hath all too short a date: Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimm’d; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance or nature’s changing …

Seven sheep were standing By the pasture wall. “Tell me,” said the teacher, To her scholars small, “One poor sheep was frightened, Jumped, and ran away. One from seven-how many Wooly sheep would stay?” Up went Kitty’s fingers- A farmer’s daughter she, Not so bright at figures As she ought to be. “Please, miss.” “Well then, Kitty, Tell us, if …

विगत दिनों नेपाल में आए भूकम्प में उतनी ही तबाही मची थी जितनी जून 2013 में उत्तराखंड में बाढ़ से मची थी। जैसे केदारनाथ मंदिर अपने आसपास के सब भवन ध्वस्त होने के बाद भी खड़ा रहा था उसी तरह पशुपतिनाथ मंदिर भी उन ध्वस्त भवनों के बीचों-बीच मामूली क्षति के खड़ा है। केदारनाथ तथा पशुपतिनाथ दोनों भगवान शिव से …

Spring is the time, When children play. Flowers bloom, And all is gay. Summer is hot; And to stay cool, Everybody wants, A dip in the pool. Monsoon clouds, Filled with rain.
