- Arts
I like reading and I like having someone read to me. To ensure both of those parameters were met I began narrating audiobooks, which you shall find showing up on this Podcast. YouTube is where I began my journey but I can't expect everyone to have YouTube music or pro or whatever the minimizable version is, so welcome to the Spotify version of 'Kenneth DSilva narrates audiobooks'

Television - Poem By Roald Dahl
Television is a poem by Roald Dahl, talking about the problem with letting children watch too much television. How staring constantly at a screen for entertainment leads the brain to rot and fizzle. This poem uses a ton of poetic devices with Hyperboles, Similes, Metaphors and alliteration galore, (If you look harder, There's probably more)
I like the message of the poem of replacing the passive entertainment of the Television with books of different kinds, and all the references to classic stories and characters within the poem.

Don't Quit - Poem by Edgar Guest
Dont Quit is a Poem by Edgar Albert Guest. It's a poem of perseverance. When we face challenges in life that make us feel like giving up, those are moments where we might benefit by moving ahead.
As we reach the end of the year, there may be moments where we start to question the path we're on, I can't tell you what to do in those cases, but maybe this poem would help clear stuff a bit.

The Tail of Bup the Bunny (Audiobook) short story - Enid Blyton
The tail of Bup the bunny is a story of a vain bunny rabbit, who decides that he wants a better looking tail. Listen on to know what happens once he gets his wish. I particularly like this story because of the pun in the title (tale/tail), and the way the animals interact with one another is a classic Enid Blyton story. Glad to be back with uploading stories this year. Hope you've been doing well! I've got a lot of stories waiting to be heard :D
