MY FAVOURITE SPOT

After reading the poem THE TAMARIND which was the favourite spot of the poet where he sat, relaxed and looked at the distant blue hills; laughed and smiled beneath its shady boughs etc we discussed our favourite places.

ABAAN shared, “My favourite place is my father’s room.” 

“Why? What do you do there?”

 “ Ma’m because there are so many many books there – Islamic and academic books. I like to read them and understand them.”

Ahem?

“Sometimes I stare at the books.”

MARIYAM HASHMI : “Ma’m my favourite place is in Allahbad, my grandparents’ house”

And where exactly?    “Umm, whole house and no ma’m it’s the roof, my favourite is roof.” 

LAIBA : “My nani’s house because there are many friends. I play very much there. we do all the things ‘together’. When it is noon, the ice-cream seller comes and then we take for everybody and enjoy very much. When it is evening then also we get some rupees and we go to buy something.”
