Ask the Robot
Poem · by Nikhil · Class 7 · Northstar International School, Dehradun
A robot can answer, but I can wonder.
I asked the robot, "What is rain?"
It answered quick, it answered plain.
But I went out and held my hand
To feel the drops fall on the land.
The robot knows a lot of things,
But not the smell the petrichor brings.
I'll ask it, yes, and then I'll go
To see it all and feel it so.
