1997-0000 Poem ‘The Fly’ by Saptashri Tollis, ISPS Dharamshala, Class 8 from 1997-98 Sahaj Amrit, Page 6

One day I saw a fly,
squashed it but it did not die,
I picked it up and put it in my sister’s pie,
She ate it and started to cry,
She told my mum and I had to lie,
told her I didn’t mean to make her cry,
Then my mum said “Nice try!”
She went to get the wooden spoon
and I said “Cood bye!”
