My Medium Family

By Ira Ghosh Nayak


Some families are BIG
Some families are small
But in my medium family
Everyone's a Know-it-all

Let's start with my Mumma
Now she's a big lawyer
She's the Kindest person I know
And I am so in awe of her

Now my Baba he tells stories
As funny as can be
He has won many prizes
But none as big as me

Then there is Ivaan
The mischievous and notorious monkey
He can be kind and loving
But he usually is a donkey

Now Coco's the most playful dog
That's what she does all day
Except when she eats and sleeps
All she does is play

Lastly there is me
The bookworm amongst us all
Though when I am not reading
Me and Ivaan have quite a brawl

This is my medium family
Where everyone is one of a kind
We all have our talents
But we are strongest when our talents are combined
