You Are the Pilot For Boarding School Students

YOU ARE THE PILOT (for boarding school students) You need not wear a veil of pain If you are perfect and prompt For your prep all time. You need not begin your day With ordeal and agony If you’re uniform is identical With poignantly tucked in shirts You need not begin your day With punishment and pretence If you speak the language Of the British. You need not begin your day in Pity and peril If chew and swallow the veggies Served on your plate. You need not begin your day With protest and pressure If you complete your homework on time. You need not begin your day With piques and problems If you write your exams fine. Your struggle today is the Spring board for your better tomorrow. Adversity does not tear down you It make you desire for the Seed of greatness, So hitch your wagon to a star. s.bagyalakshmi
