Explanation if poem These simple things by Ruskin bond
Answers
Answer:
You want to meet Nature? Some lovely children of the North? A few interesting pets? Or some pestering ghosts? Read Ruskin Bond. I read one of his collections The Ruskin Bond Omnibus a few years back. Recently I got hold of another collection, The Ruskin Bond Mini Bus. It’s lovely, beautiful and it’s funny as well.
It’s a collection of his stories and verses and essays, all about his favorite people and animals: Himalayan Tales, The India I Love, A Little Night Music and Roads To Mussoorie.
His poems are so simple and nice. Here is a small one titled These Simple Things…
The simplest things in life are best-
A patch of green,
A small bird’s nest,
A drink of water, fresh and cold,
The taste of bread,
A song of old;
These are the things that matter most.
The laughter of a child,
A favourite book,
Flowers growing wild,
A cricket singing in a shady nook.
A ball that bounces high!
A summer shower,
A rainbow in the sky,
The touch of a loving hand,
And time to rest-
These simple things in life are best.
