Three Besties
Three Besties
Left home brushed and scrubbed
Three besties supposedly in a rush
On way to school to attend class
Homework not done in a dilemma
To bunk or face wrath of teacher
All hands raised settled the matter
Would be a rendezvous with the waters
Undressed, neatly folded uniforms
Hid them behind big boulder
Walked 'full monty' into the gurgling brook
Splashed, dunked each other all noon
Till hunger pangs made them run for cover
To dig into tiffin moms had packed
Dosas, idlies, chutney vada
'Dhokla' pau bhaji with masala
Skin tanned toasted brown
Courtesy high noon sun
And then mayhem ensued
Uniforms missing searched
Till sun had dipped right down
Mister Moo was chewing cud
Their clothes ofcourse enjoying repast
Oblivious of what he had done
Three besties placed in a fix
How to reach home in their undies!!
