Ask a new mom,
What is the sound of silence?
She would say…
"Relaxation mode on!!".
Ask a mom of a toddler,
What is the sound of silence?
She would say…
" It is dangerous and fearsome ".
Ask a teacher,
What is...
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.

And we basked under it,
During lunch and PE.

Affectionate is she towards them.
Amazing courage she has
When she embraces motherhood.
Considered coy and shy,

And sometimes unexplored too.
The journey is pleasant,
At times painful too,

Spoke in volumes,
Of the royalty it enclosed.
The generations that grew within,
And the stories of their valour.

Had tales to tell too.
Tales of battle lessons learnt,
And footsteps that brought in
Happiness,...
