Nayra Gupta

To where I belong,

Where love keeps me strong,

The place where love grows,

Makes my life flow.

The place where kindness blooms,

Makes my life feel like a bloom!

Every dream becomes a song,

When I am surrounded by where I belong.

I swim with joy,

I knit with care,

I paint my dreams with colors,

I express my mind and share my heart,

Together they all are my favorite part.

One special part to where I belong,

Comes with family and friends along.

My family makes me smile,

And my friends come every worthwhile.

I belong where my family stands by my side,

With love and support all the time.

My friends come in when I am sad or not bright,

They make my life feel more excited.

Together they make me kind and strong,

With them is where I truly belong.

I belong to India’s culture so rich and true,

Where every festival brings something new.

India’s tradition and culture help me grow,

Teaching respect in all I know.

India is where I proudly belong.

I belong to school where I learn each day.

My teachers help me find my way.

In school I always discover, create and share,

Surrounded by friends that always care.

I belong to the beautiful world,

With no war and only peace,

Where hope and kindness forever increase,

Where every mind is filled with light,

And every heart shines warm and bright.
