Reunion Maitri 2009
Posted by Ashish Sinha on June 9, 2009
We were happy when we were in school
Getting up early and morning prayer was a rule
Tie, blazor and shiny black shoes, made us look cool
We ate icecreams and burgers and moved in pool
Catching grass hoppers and butterflies was a bit of fun
Tree next to the Principal’s house gave us shade from the Sun
Our discussions varied from cricket to Titan
Time table cards, book labels, colorful stickers were our objects of desire
Getting too much homework resulted in our ire
Maths was easy and so was biology, Chemistry was fun and
borning history was full of chronology
We studied hard to score good marks,
But success before exams was always full of question marks.
Receiving course books at the beginning of new session,
was exciting and full of enthusiasm
Getting new school bags, new shoes was our right,
Parents followed it religiously to see us come up bright
Teachers were classified ugly , bad and good
some were soft and some were rude
Some of them controlled us through scale made of wood
But class teachers were normally good
Rainy day and childrens days made us smile
Teachers day was celebrated in style
Our affection for teachers and friends was displayed in sharing of lunch
Drinking water directly from the tap was always a fun
Dozen years in school, gave us knowledge, kindness and cool,
Albeit we must have then looked stupid and fool
New dreams, renewed vision, aspiring to be on top of the world,
We left school to face the real world!
