Gone are the days!!!...
When
The school reopened in June,
And we settled in our new desks and benches!
When
We queued up in book depot,
And got our new books and notes!
When
We wanted two Sundays and no Mondays,
Yet managed to line up daily for the morning prayers.
We learnt writing with slates and pencils, and
Progressed To fountain pens and ball pens and then Micro tips!
When
We began drawing with crayons and evolved to
Color pencils and finally sketch pens!
When
we started calculating first with tables and then with
Clarke's tables and advanced to calculators and computers!
When
we chased one another in the
corridors in intervals, and returned to the classrooms
Drenched in sweat!
When
we had lunch in classrooms, corridors, playgrounds,
under the trees and even in cycle sheds!
When
all the colors in the world,
Decorated the campus on the Second Saturdays!
When
a single P.T. period in the week's Time Table,
Was awaited more eagerly than the monsoons!
When
cricket was played with writing pads as bats,
And Neck ties and socks rolled into balls!
When
few played "Kabadi" and "Kho-Kho" in scorching sun,
While others simply played "book cricket" in the confines of classroom!
Of fights but no conspiracies,
Of Competitions but seldom jealousy!
When
we used to watch Live Cricket telecast,
In the opposite house in Intervals and Lunch breaks!
When
few rushed at 3:45 to "Conquer" window seats in our School bus!
While few others had "Big Fun", "peppermint",
"kulfi", " milk ice !" and "sharbat !" at 4 o'clock!
Gone are the days
Of Sports Day,
and the annual School Day ,
And the one-month long preparations for them.
Gone are the days
Of the stressful Quarterly,
Half Yearly and Annual Exams,
And the most enjoyed holidays after them!
Gone are the days Of tenth and twelfth standards, when
We Spent almost the whole year writing revision tests!
We learnt,
We enjoyed,
We played,
We won,
We lost,
We laughed,
We cried,
We fought,
We thought.
With so much fun in them, so many friends,
So much experience, all this and more!
Gone are the days
When we used to talk for hours with our friends!
Now we don't have time to say a `Hi'!
Gone are the days
When we played games on the road!
Now we Code on the road with laptop!
Gone are the days
When we saw stars Shining at Night!
Now we see stars when our code doesn't Work!
Gone are the days
When we sat to chat with Friends on grounds!
Now we chat in chat rooms.....!
Gone are the days
Where we studied just to pass!
Now we study to save our job!
Gone are the days
Where we had no money in our pockets and still fun filled on our hearts!!
Now we have the ATMs as well as Credit Cards but with an empty heart!!
Gone are the days
Where we shouted on the road!
Now we don't shout even at home
Gone are the days
Where we got lectures from all!
Now we give lectures to all... like the one I'm doing now....!!
Gone are the days
But not the memories, which will be
Lingering in our hearts for ever and ever and
Ever and ever and ever .....
Gone are the Days.... But still there are lot more Days to come in our Life!!
NO MATTER HOW BUSY YOU ARE,
DON'T FORGET TO LIVE THE LIFE THAT STILL EXISTS.....
