Books Forever by Prasham J.Books Forever - Gift of Quarantine

I love books. When it was time to return, I was bit sad as I couldn’t complete all of them but then lockdown started. My mom gave me an idea to keep and remember the book forever is to draw and paint the favorite page of the book. And I can tell story of each book to my younger sister. I did it and Decorated my wall. I feel so happy.

Exercise With My Cat: A Poem with Photography

Exercise With My Cat by Denette B. Exercise With My Cat by Denette B.

Start with a playlist moving to beats,
Purr along with music pointing/flexing your feet.
Stretch your arms reaching sky high,
Gaze at the ceiling with your eyes.
Arch, tall and proud, to a standing backbend.
Run up-and-down stairs again and again.
Recover your breath in a supine position,
Squeeze each body part for relaxed condition.
Return to high cardio before cooling down,
Imitate birds flying upward bound.
Superman, crunches, as many pushups as possible,
Find hide-and-seek places - scenery that's likable.
Congratulate yourself for a great workout!
High intensity - low impact intervals
without going out and about.

-- Denette B.
