The Storyteller

Who is this man, papa??

He’s old, big and fat

& he carries big books

& wears a straw hat

Who is this man?

Who is he, papa?

He’s no ordinary,

He’s no ordinary man, son

For - he is a man who is truly

Blessed with gifted power,

from mighty heaven above.

He is a unique person son

A storyteller of class, caliber and talent

He is widely known and he is really gallant..

He has crossed the seven seas,

To tell and narrate stories of glee

To all the people in this town,

And all the children who are free

He is a storyteller, dear son,

An impressive great storyteller..

What all stories does he know, dad?

Are his stories happy or sad?

What all stories he will narrate to us

What all stories does he know??

Stories of Queens, Stories of Kings,

Stories of Angels, who fly with Wings

Stories of Love, Stories of Hope,

Stories of two lovers, who happily elope

Tales of Laughter, Mirth and Joy,

Tales of Darkness, to make you cry

Stories of Dungeons, Stories of Dragons,

Stories of Cinderellas, riding in wagons

Stories of Animals, Humans and God,

Stories of Humpty-Dumpty, who never does nod

Stories of Wit, Mirth and Glee,

Stories of birds who are perched in trees

Stories to tell and stories to laugh,

Stories to love,

and cherish in our hearts..

Oh god!

Oh dear God!!

Oh dear God papa!!!

I want to listen.

I want to listen..

I want to listen to his stories, papa…

His Stories of Laughter, Mirth and Joy,

His Stories of Darkness to make me cry

I want to listen to his stories,

I want to listen to his stories, papa...
