Gone with the wind

No kidding!! This u will surely enjoy!! (no secrets!!)

Gone are the days, ...........but not the memories
Gone are the days When the school reopened in June,
And we settled in our new desks and benches.

Gone are the days When we queued up in book depot,
And got our new books and notes.

Gone are the days When we wanted two Sundays and no Mondays, yet Managed to line up daily for the morning prayers.

Gone are the days We learnt writing with slates and pencils,
and progressed To fountain pens and ball pens and then micro tips.

Gone are the days We began drawing with crayons
and evolved to Colour pencils and finally sketch pens.

Gone are the days We started calculating first with tables
and then with Clarkes tables and advanced to calculators and computers.

Gone are the days When we chased one another in the corridors in Intervals,
And returned to the classrooms drenched in sweat.

Gone are the days When we had lunch in classrooms,
corridors, Playgrounds, under the trees and even in cycle sheds.

Gone are the days When all the colours in the world,
Decorated the campus on the Second Saturdays.

Gone are the days When a single P.T. period in the week's Time Table,
Was awaited more eagerly than the monsoons.

Gone are the days When cricket was played with writing pads as bats,
And Neckties and socks rolled into balls.

Gone are the days When few played "kabadi" and "Co-Co" in scorching sun,
While others simply played "book cricket" in the confines of classroom.

Gone are the days Of fights but no conspiracies,
Of Competitions but seldom jealousy.

Gone are the days When we used to watch Live Cricket telecast,
In the opposite house in Intervals and Lunch breaks.

Gone are the days When few rushed at 3:45 to
"Conquer" window seats in our School bus.

Gone are the days While few others had "Big Fun",
"pulippu muttai", "gulfi ice", "seeval ice !" and "pepsi !" at 4oClock.

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.

Gone are the days We learnt, we enjoyed,
we played, we won, we lost, We laughed,
we cried, we fought, we thought.

Gone are the days With so much fun in them,
so many friends, So much experience, all this and more.

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


Have a great day,
