MY FAVOURITE TOY--award winner

MY FAVOURITE TOY: award winner


I have a small toy that’s my pet
And the truth is but this:
Sometimes I even think my own
Master, in fact, it is.

For even an hour I cannot
Be away from my toy.
Unless I have it in my hand,
I feel deprived of joy.

I often pat it on the right
But sometimes on the left.
I even drag it but this I
Do in a manner deft.

This toy, though it is named as mouse,
Is quite wise and brilliant.
It controls the computer that’s
Far more intelligent.
