LET US SEARCH FOR SYNONYMS



                                          LET US SEARCH FOR SYNONYMS

Let us stop unearthing controversial issues and start attending to earthly issues;
Let us stop descrying into the past for good, and feed those crying for their food ;
Let us stop winkling out for scandals and start weeding out the vandals;
Let us nose into the ways to nationalize our water resources and close once for all famines, floods and other losses;
Let us not resurrect the past for retaliation but detect our defects, at present for correction;
Let us light upon our pride of ancestry and brighten up the hope for the future of our world;
Let us all unravel together the greatness of our land and give up any narrow political stand;
Let us root out corruption, arms accumulation and meet our expenses for amelioration;
Let us ferret for all forms of violence and set out to deal with better sense;
Let us grub for our real needs and scrub clean our creeds;
Let us get at the truth of brotherhood and love, and get on with love of truth;
Let us disinter our caring and sharing natural senses and counter all divisions and differences;
Let us fish for our cultural heritage and dish out to her a bounteous patronage;
Let us discover the greatness of nature and with natural greatness stop her torture;
Let us spot humane means to control population;
Let us explore in the ocean of life's shores, and oar in the ocean of life with morals and mores;
Let us quest for bringing out the best and test our talents without rest;
Let us fossick for the suffering and sick and pick up all means to cure them quick;
Let us rake our responsibilities for God's sake and make more contribution to the world than we take;
Let us pry into the needs of the poor, stop their cry and try our best to brighten them up high;
Let us look for putting up selfless work and look forward to improving our psyche;
Let us seek to improve the weak and meek and eke out to them to make them to reach the peak;
Let us search for the inner spiritual torch and as such get the divine touch;
Let us snoop for every useful crop and prop it up at least for our grub;
Let us peruse all the gifts of God, and muse and use them and avoid any misuse;
Let us scan humanity and widen our scope and span rather than seclude ourselves in our clan;
Let us trace our roots as one human race and erase differences of colour and race;
Let us track our vices, and hack and pack them off, as a black mark;
Let us pursue always what is true and our due and develop a broader view;
Let us mouse-dodge into the vistas of real knowledge and hedge ourselves in the Lord's Lodge;
Let us fathom into the depths of our bosom and groom our sense of concern in that room;
Let us spear the greatness of atmosphere and rear her as someone dear and near;
Let us moot life's real root and uproot our ways so brute;
Let us beat the bushes to meet and greet peace, and with her help make our life great
Let us leave no stone unturned to achieve and believe in our strength, and strive;
Let us rummage through the weapons of damage and save our age from their outrage;
Let us probe into the possibilities to unite the entire globe, and to do that job let us suffer like a modern Job;
Let us delve into the depths of universal love and share our self love;
Let us scrutinize the ways of acting wise and with tolerance make life very nice;
Let us ultimately find our grail, The Best society when we are kind and work for harmony and unity.

CHILD IN SO MANY WORDS



                                                  CHILD IN SO MANY WORDS

All of us feel happy
To receive a new born BABY;
In joy we all want to cling
To that nice NURSLING;
And that soft SUCKLING;
How wonderful and worthy is the WEAN;
Whose heart is innocent and clean;
Its ways are meek and mild
As it is still a child ;
To play with a LITTLE ONE;
Is a great fun;
When he starts to walk as a TODDLER;
He gets in the way of every elder;
Pampered and spoiled too much, a BRAT
He becomes , and starts to irritate;
A girl child lively and fit
Bold and impertinent is a CHIT;
The sprightly jerky goat's young did
Inspire the English tongue to take KID;
The English pen cannot forget
The horse's pen, hence we have COLT;From the horse's young one to describe the inexperienced lot.
The English affinity for the canine lot is inside their SCALP
Hence we have the contemptuous term for a child as whelp
From the young ones of a dog or a wolf or anything from the same CLUB
Another word for a small child is CUB;
From young birds which cannot yet fling,
And fly, and leave the nest we have NESTLING;
From the young of kangaroos that Australians often see
They term a young child as JOEY;
From the small, tender stem which is growing
And going to become a tree we have SAPPLING;
To indicate an inexperienced youth who is struggling.
Very dirty and unruly children who cause chagrin
Are termed as GAMIN, RAGAMUFFIN, or URCHIN.
A spoilt child who deserves no fondling
Who is impolite is a BANTLING
American Indian mother wherever she goes
Carries her baby on her back which is called a PAPOOSE;
A young child with enormous mischief
Is called an IMP or an ELF
The Scots have contributed many terms to indicate children
CALLANT and STRIPLING for boys, and generally for kids KIDDIE and BAIRN.
The Irish who love the countryside and its green
Have a term for the young girl from the country as COLLEEN.
And for the boys, from the French GARCON
They have coined the term GOSSOON;
Small boys who still move in knickers
Are called NIPPERS;
A presumptuous and unimportant youngster
Is called a WHIPPER-SNAPPER;
The male child who is meant to carry on
As a heir is called a SPRIG or SCION;
The young child whom we all like
Has many other names as SHAVER, SPROG AND TYKE;
The term for an Italian baby do you know?
Is the brand name of many commercial products as well BAMBINO;
A homeless child with a life of strife
Who wonders about is a GUTTER -SNIPPE or WAIF;
Exceptionally talented child whom we admire with glee
Is called a PRODIGY;
The terms of endearment as a pet
