Monkey Tricks Poem by hariharans sundaram

Weekend is for enjoyment
It is up to you to get some entertainment
We as a family decided to go to the park
And come back before it gets dark.

We went in our car to the big banayan tree
We reached there at around three
My children started by playing with ball
We joined them, and it was fun for all

There were a bunch of monkeys, the real ones
Which we didn’t notice immediately, at once
One of them picked up the ball
And went up a tree that was tall

We tried to scare it and throw the ball at us
But it held the ball and made a lot of fuss
We threw a stone at the monkey and thought
he would throw the ball at us with retort

But, he held on to the ball tight
And we were sure we lost the fight
We gave up on the ball and decided to walk
that is when he decided to throw the ball back

Weekends are for entertainment
It is up to us to get some enjoyment
We never thought we would so much of it that day
It was a monkey that gave us that all the way
