Posting after a long time today… A new poem (if it can be termed so)
Ringing of the assembly bells
the murmurings in the lines
Angry stares of the teachers
friends laughing at the rebuking
those daily doses of homework
begging girls for their notebooks
standing out of the class as punishment
all the beatings recieved at the hands of teachers
fourth period spent eating lunch
a friend’s aloo ke paranthe
which he never could eat
being bulleyed by seniors
few years later returning the favour
Playing games in the interval
All the lab periods spent chattering
of crushes and love interests of one and all
the chemistry of relations brewing in chemistry lab
physical assaults in physics labs
those special assembly sessions missed
for music sessions at the roof
Being lined in front of Incharge’s Office as a result
Struggles to suppress our laughter in english class
Looking at the hot chick in the class opposite to us
falling from the chair in order to have a better look
all the gossips doing their rounds from one ear to other
falling for one girl after other
and ending up with none in the end
all the sleep overs at each others’ homes
looking at stars from the roof
the times of watching Baywatch for some action
Waiting for all and sundry to sleep at home
before switching to English channels
a time of innocence and simplicity
a time of wild and unbridled dreams
a time of carefree life
the days of my school lifeMissing all those moments
Tried to write a poem but (I think) hasnt turned out that gud!! or even average!! Looks more like prose than a poem… I just kept writing
This is my 199th post.. Next one will be legen <Wait for it
….
Keep Waiting>
DARY!!! for me

its hard to call it a poem though the points are nicely collected and written …. seriously school days were rocking and were among those few moments which i will cherish my whole life
Sep 15, 2008 @ 13:15:00
great piece!!
Miss all of you so much!
I have profound memories of those chemistry classes(4th period) when you people ate your tiffins! Then those lab classes where we chattered and yeah I know who was the chick
and those roof sessions of music…are you referring to some incident where you were flying kites and singing songs….I have some faint memory of that….hehe. English classes were fun for sure where I did all the reading of GE (remember?)
all in all school days definitely were the best
Sep 15, 2008 @ 14:43:31
School days were real fun
….. GOD……. we miss them.. so bad……. but like every stage they passed… soon I’ll see people writing poems on ‘college life’ and ‘all the masti done here’ …… but a good one..of course not the poem…. but the content…
Sep 15, 2008 @ 18:59:48

i am not discouraging you…
I just wish to say,
Keep Trying
