What was your best dream as a child? Maybe fly like Superman or fight like Catwoman or live in fantasy!!! Today I want you to meet the world’s best visual thinker…

It was 10 in the morning when Arjun received a letter on his door steps. The sender’s name made him suffer through goosebumps, Tanvi Bohra…

Tanvi Bohra, daughter of Arjun Bohra an industrialist, was always neglected by her father because of her thinking and imaginary thoughts. Her mom Nina Bohra, died when she was 10, she was the only one who believed that her daughter was possessed with a beautiful gift. After her mom’s death Tanvi was sent to a boarding school by her father. She use to write letters to her father which never got a reply…

Dear Dad,

I won first prize for my poem, “My Dreams”. Please read and tell me how is it.

My Dream

My dream is to be like Esmeralda, bold and beautiful,
at the same time have the passion to live life like no one else.

Roam around the streets of Paris like a Gypsy girl with my Djali.

Dance on the unknown streets on the beats of my tambourine.

Defeat the Frollo and find the Quasimodo of my life.

My dream is to be like Esmeralda, bold and beautiful,
at the same time have the passion to live life like no one else.

My dream is to be like Rapunzel, painting the walls with my dreams.

And dancing around the room while singing my favourite scream.

Leaving behind the seas and pubs and forests
I want to reach my destination with or without my Rider.

My dream is to be like Rapunzel,
painting the walls with my dreams.

My dream is be a fairy,
fly and steal all the sadness of the world.

I want to live in Pixie Hollow with Tinker Bell and Silvermist.

I want to extend the time from 12 to 2
for Cinderella could enjoy her first ball with Prince.

My dream is be a fairy,
fly and steal all the sadness of the world.

My dream is to be a Mermaid
and explore all the seas.

I want to play with Ariel
and hide behind the corals.

I want to swim, through the deepest seas
with my long blond hairs and glossy sparkling tail.

My dream is to be a Mermaid
and explore all the seas.

My dream is to plant a tree of Love ,
and share it with everyone else.

I want to pluck a heart from it’s branches and give it to one who lacks.

I want to spread the love and care,
with those who needs it best.

My dream is to plant a tree of Love ,
and share it with everyone else.

Thank you. Hope you will reply this time.

Tanvi
