Astounding, amazing abyss
Beneath both beautiful and bountiful
Clear, cleansing caverns
Diving dangerously for discoveries
Enchrusting Echnoderms
Foraging fish
Gorgeous gastropods
Hunting hammerheads
Intelligent invertebrates
Jubilant jellyfish
Kindred krill
Light-emitting lanternfish
Mouthy marlins
Natural nautiluses
Obdurate octopus
Protective pinnipeds
Quiescent quahogs
Rounded rays
Seafloor sturgeons
Timid turtles
Utilitarian urchins
Valiant veliger
Wonderful wrasses
Xenial Xingu River Rays
Yielding Yellow-finned tuna
Zealful zooplankton

In the heart of bustling city,
It majestically sprawls across,
Mesmerising and gorgeous,
Bounded by pristine stone walls.
Awash with memories, I recall
Nights slogged until dawn,
Gearing up for exams and events
And placements to top it all.
Lived a dream with friends for life,
On these hallowed lands,
Rightfully the 'place to be', now and
Even in the years to come!

Our Seasons are a blessing, as they also represent
the cycle of life- and Spring is our symbol of Rebirth.
A nother Spring did come our way;
B egan late March, and day by day,
C ontinued to advance and urge
D ear Daffodils to soon emerge,
E nhancing scenes with pastel splash-
F orgetting drab of Winter's ash.
G reen life came forth with varied hues-
H ad driven Springtime's wakened muse
I nto a frenzy of rebirth.
J ump-started seeds, beneath the earth,
K indly spread Forsythia bloom;
L et Crocus sprout from Winter's tomb.
M agnolia blossoms, pink and white,
N ext painted days with pure delight.
O ur Spring brought Pansy's vivid shades,
P urple Iris, Sweet Pea cascades.
Q uick to grow, Anemones,
R ounded buds on Dogwood trees.
S lowly, Spring displayed her gems;
T iny Snowdrops danced on stems.
U nder bushes violets grew
V anishing bleak Winter's view,
W ith colors painting the new scene.
X anadu, our Springtime dream!
Y early blessings, seasons bring-
Z enith of each year- our Spring!
