I enter the school with big wide eyes – shining bright!
Oops! My heart jumping with joy at my best friend’s sight.
Here, I begin my flight.
The prayer begins, it’s a quirky quiet.
We may try hard but eyes know their right!
As ma’am passes by, we begin the naughty ride.
We twist, we turn, we dance.
When ma’am catches us, together we plead, “Ma’am one more chance”!
In the class, on that favourite bench,
Our legs swing together and our hand in hand,
The boring books on bench and tasty tiffin underneath in the trench.
A sip of water is a perfect quench.
Stand upon the bench! Out of the class! Kneel down on your knees!
Believe us, it gives us very elated feel.
Oh Lord! Who gives us so much of zeal?
My school is my home. It’s close to my heart.
Whatever I learn here, is a nine-darter strike.
I am naughty, I am a brat. No No No! this is what I pretend.
At heart I am the sincerest student.

about 25k of DNA
that's all we got
for expressions to say
but more than a lot
adenine and cytosine,
long to interlace,
guanine and thymine
to make a living base
all stewed in nucleotides
helixed turns so linked
is what makes life's ride
to all organisms distinct
finned salmon fishes
grizzlies and finches
appointed life's wishes
for nature, it's a cinch
too, flies and butterflies
anaconda's and darter snails
life's supplies in disguise
diversity of crittered tales
it's puzzling to piece
just how life can do it
with near-infinite increase
of its proteined tool kit
switched on proteins
morph winged extremities
to myriad of in-betweens
and other of life's remedies
go for it, life says
make a smash, make a mistake
live it to the hilt
all ways alive, for life's sake
