Hide Ans Seek Poem by S.D. TIWARI

Children of the street gathered together.
They have planned, to play hide and seek.
A naughty boy is chosen, the first seeker.
To close his eyelids, he is asked to keep.

He has to count, numbers unto hundred;
but he stands, as a much clever seeker.
On intervals of few, he blinks his eyes;
other children proclaim him, the cheater.

He has to continue as the seeker again;
players deploy Tony to have a watch.
All others have hidden here and there;
Tony has to go to hide, in the last.

Naughty boy raises a little, one eyelid;
when Tony is about to move, to hide.
Now Tony has to become next seeker;
as the naughty boy knows, where to find.
