Poem

Early morning, while walking down the country road
I saw a group of children, school bound in crisp uniforms
Oh it is August, I suddenly remembered
And the schools have opened after the summer holidays

Like birds unleashed from the cage,
With satchels on their back, talking merrily
Shouting at times in rising elation
Without a care, they walked down the lane

Seeing them, my world sank into a chasm of memories 
Remembered my school days when I walked on foot
With my friends every morn to the school, close by

Though bored by the onerous rite of waking up early
And studying subjects we hardly had any interest
Life altogether was a new adventure
And on every day we learnt something new
At recess, we would grow into a disorderly mass
Laugh and play. Oh, what joy we always had!

But how fast those happy days ended,
Plunging me into an abyss of nostalgic remembrance.
Seeing those children in school uniforms,
Heading to school to study, play and have fun
Thoughts fall like feathers of moulting birds and reel round me.

How the memories of school life make me smile
And how I long to be a student again just for a while!
