err... - rOsHnEe
hey all!
this is a li'l poem i wrote in class during vinita matthew's lecture today.. little simplistic..but i didnt have much time..and i didnt know we had to only submit words..and not make a poem outta em..hehe..so here goes...
Born in the festival of light
Named just right!
‘Roshnee’ this name I had worn
Even before the time I was born.
Kolkata stirs memories in me
Of rickshaws,puchkas and mudi
Bombay is the place I call home,
Living with the people of my own,
Ranu, Neha, Kinjal, Natasha
School mein dhamaal n tamasha,
From imported toys,
Barbies to boys,
We grew up together
Amidst teasing and laughter,
Noddy, famous five, faraway tree;
Mark Twain, Julies Verne;
Astrix, Tintin, Archie!
Left school with flying colours,
Pedas and thanks to teachers and peers,
College opened to me a new window wide,
Ruparel was surely one helluva ride,
Thinking of it my eyes well up with tears.
Crush, mush, masti and fun
Life couldn’t be better till exams made us run..
Trauma, tantrums, stress and anxiety
Surely had a toll on my longevity!
Left science with mixed emotions
Dreams of being a ‘doctor’ lost in transition...
As BMM beckons me out of my past,
I am a free bird at long last!

Lynnard Skynard is a singer. Freebird is his song. And *here* was where it would have been most appropriate to sing it/play it.
Try and get hold of it, it's a wonderful song.
