A Pig In The Sky (A Poem For Children) Poem by Rajesh Thankappan

A pig in the sty
Wished to fly
So he grew wings
And took to the skies.

He flew over
A meandering river,
Stopped and then hovered
Over a rising tower.

A magician who saw him
In the high sky
Cried, "Hey, is that not a pig
Trespassing on the sky! "

So, using a magical trick
He turned the flying pig
Nay, not into a fly
But into a beautiful butterfly

When you look out of your window
Children you may find the piggy out there,
But in case you don't
He is sure to have gone elsewhere!
