illesha's ears

"My ears hurt!", illesha complained
"time to see the doctor", Mom ordained.
"Lets go now!". illesha can hardly wait.
she loves the candy the doctor offers as bait.
Doctor looks at illesha's ears.
"hmm... never seen anything like this
I've been practising for years .."
he begins to extract her ear wax
there's a lump ...
then it is a dump.
which grows into a mound
of yellow sticky mess on the ground.
doctor- "there's more to be found!"
soon its a mountain
and at last, he 's done.
Doc says "Do you feel better ?"
"ya ! and much lighter"

illesha's 7th birthday

On the 7th birthday of Illesha
she had a birthday bash-a
she'd invited julianne, Ashu and joshua
Ashu was skittish
and Julianne the 4 year old, impish
Josh was a little brash
while Esha was her usual snobbish.
After some games and balderdash
They were all famished.
Babita the mom said - "Go wash
and get ready to replenish!"
Table was laid and Mom served with flourish.
Josh looked at his plate with relish
and spoke like a true south Indian with polish
"potato mash - aa ?"
"Nope. said Mom. Pasta made in a rush-a."
Later in the evening, the cake was out.
But, where were the 7 candles
tiny and garish
Dad bought the previous day ?
"Julianne hid them! Esha cried in anguish.
"No. didn't do" said Julianne, eyes with tears awash.
confusion ensued. Did the candles vanish ?
Search was on - nothing was spared
pillow covers, trunks nor trash.
amidst the chaos, Mom, in a haste to finish
gave in to her instinct to demolish
and carved up the cake. Gosh!
Esha - "who cut the cake ?"
