Grades

by Rahul


Sitting pretty in Guha's class
and listening about tin and brass
an abberant thought went through my head
"why do we want good grade?"
I pondered over it for a while
then the answer struck me with a smile

Good grades would mean nice job
you'll stand away from the common mob
good job is nothing but a healthy pay
sun would shine for you to make hay
Money makes your life's merry go round
all comforts and luxeries truly profound

But the next moment i went too far
Is that what we are living for?
Great people left all luxeries of life
Always lived like a soldier's wife
I too want to be one great
I will never strive for good grade!

Pretty Face

O pretty face let me be next to you today i always wished us to be together together from dawn till dusk from nadir till zenith from the moment i saw you till the moment i see nothing Who knows where life takes us as we move on whether i'll be there caressing your temples and feeling your sweet presence mingled in the aura of love love, filling the emptiness between us and the stars who knows... If today, you go away nothing will change in this world but there will be no world for me like a thirsty person in the midst of an ocean dying for a drop of life i would wander pale and blue just to have a sight of you powered by performancing firefox

A Retrospection

Memories are like a sudden gust of cold breeze; they leave you shivering as they pass by the moors of your mind. A retrospection can take you to the good moments which you cherish and the bad ones which you would not want to remember again, but, nonetheless, they do appear without you being conscious of them. You cannot avoid a recollection, whether of joy or agony or thrill, it just hits you and then goes away. I have many such memories which I want to share because I think that is the only way by which I can live those moments again. But to find a potential listener is a huge ask, therefore, I decided to jot them down here. One such incident, which I think was one of the most thrilling of all, is what I am describing here. It still leaves me trembling with fear when I am reminded of it. This happened when I was in 11th standard. We were a group of four; one of the most famous clans in the the school, and infamous as well. We were like four wheels of a wagon-a wagon on the roll, drive...
