[piyush vijay]

When  The school reopened in June,  And we settled in our new desks and  benches!  When we queued up in book depot,  And got our new books and notes!  When we wanted two Sundays and no Mondays, yet  managed to line up daily for the morning prayers..  We learnt writing with  slates and pencils, and Progressed To fountain pens and ball pens and then Micro tips!  When we began drawing with crayons and evolved to Color pencils and finally sketch pens!  When we started calculating  first with tables and then with  Clarke's tables and advanced to  Calculators and computers!  When we chased one another in the  corridors in Intervals, and returned to the classrooms  Drenched in sweat!  When we had lunch in classrooms, corridors,  Playgrounds,  under the trees and even in cycle sheds!  When all the colors in the world,  Decorated the campus on the Second Saturdays! When a single P.T. period in the week's Time Table, Was awaited more eagerly than the monsoons!  When cricket was played with writing pads as bats,  And Neckties and socks rolled into balls!  When few played  'kabadi' and 'Kho-Kho' in scorching sun,  While others simply played 'book cricket' in the  Confines of classroom!  Of fights but no conspiracies,  Of Competitions but seldom jealousy!  When we used to  watch Live Cricket telecast, In the opposite house in Intervals and Lunch breaks!  When few rushed at 3:45 to  'Conquer' window seats in our School bus!  While few others had 'Big Fun', 'peppermint' , 'kulfi', ' milk ice !' and 'sharbat !' at 4o Clock!  Gone are the days  Of Sports Day,  and the annual School Day ,  And the one-month long  preparations for them.  Gone are the days  Of the stressful Quarterly,  Half Yearly and Annual Exams, And the most  enjoyed holidays after them!  Gone are the days  Of tenth and twelfth standards, when  We Spent almost the whole year writing revision tests! We learnt,  We enjoyed, We played, We won,  We lost,  We laughed, We cried,  We fought, We thought. With so much fun in them, so many friends,  So much experience, all this and more!  Gone are the days  When we used  to talk for hours with our friends! Now we don't have time to say a `Hi'!  Gone are the days  When we played games on the road! Now we  Code on the road with laptop!  Gone are the days  When we saw stars  Shining at Night!  Now we see stars when our code doesn't Work!  Gone are the days  When we sat to chat with Friends on grounds!  Now we chat in chat rooms......!  Gone are the days  Where we  studied just to pass!  Now we study to save our job!  Gone are the days  Where we had no money in our pockets and still fun filled on our hearts!!  Now we have the atm as well as credit card but with an empty heart!!  Gone are the days  Where we shouted on the road!  Now we don't shout even at home  Gone are the days Where we got lectures from all! Now we give lectures to all... like the one I'm doing now....!!  Gone are the days  But not the memories, which will be  Lingering in our hearts for ever and ever and  Ever and ever and ever .....  Gone are the Days.... But still there are lot more Days to come in our Life!!  NO MATTER HOW BUSY YOU ARE , DONT FORGET TO  LIVE THE LIFE THAT STILL EXISTS...... ...
