Poetry
Your shade, so soothing,
Was our abode for ages.
Under you, we grew,
Laughed, cried and enjoyed.
You saw us as toddlers,
Running around you,
Singing Ring-around-the- roses.
As we grew,
Your shade grew too
And we basked under it,
During lunch and PE.

I could hear the voices,
That awaited my arrival.
They said we will do this,
They said we will do that.
I knew they were mine,
And I belonged to them.
Lest I knew that,
That was just my misunderstanding.

The azure sky,
Looked bright and calm,
Shining against the sun,
It looked all warm.
Gray coloured birds,
Flew across majestically.
Leaving a trail of smoke,

And sometimes unexplored too.
The journey is pleasant,
At times painful too,
But, isn't...

The walls, old yet firm,
Spoke in volumes,
Of the royalty it enclosed.
The generations that grew within,
And the stories of their valour.
The unwinding stairs,
Had tales to tell too.
Tales of battle lessons learnt,
And footsteps that brought in
Happiness,...

The month of monsoon,
When pitter-patter, fall the raindrops,
On my tiled roof.
Gloomy sky, pregnant clouds,
Set the mood for a lazy day.
As a kid, I enjoyed,
Walking in the rain,
To school and back,
Sporting colourful umbrellas,
Ahhh.. the pride...
