A Tribute To Womanhood

Like a shodow that follows on,

Like a hope that lingers on,

Like a butterfly that flutters by

Woman – Art Thou.

The epitome of love and care,

An emblem of sufferings though to bear,

The panacea to all human woes,

Woman – Art Thou.

Girl, daughter, mother and wife,

Names that render no more strife,

Abode of love, the true progenitor,

Oh! We have these as a universal mentor.

Pure as while and deep as the ocean,

Woman thou art not a silly notion,

Fathoms of questions unanswered.

To thy dual nature contributed.

Gentle as the wind, study as an oak,

To every house thou art a rock,

A rock to guide, a rock that cares.

That human minds are rid of their fears.

The Deaf Ear And The Whole

The Deaf Ear And The Whole

Deformity
Mortified walls that pierce
The skeletal enclosure
And congenital humiliation
Wags its tail
Mocking misery raises its head
Reminders every where
Affirmation of calloused walls
Opening unhealed wounds
Every hour, everyday.
Salt of earth, spare a while
The wails are fainter
But agony unabated
where were you when your brother cried?

Poem By:Gopal K.S,St.Alberts College

Easy v/s Difficult

EASY V/S DIFFICULT


Easy is to get a place in someone’s address book
Difficult is to get a place in someone’s heart

Easy is to attain a mistake in childhood
Difficult is to correct it in adulthood

Easy is to we love
Difficult is to show it every day

Easy is to promise something to someone
Difficult is to fulfill that promise

Easy is to stumble on a stone
Difficult is to get up

Easy is to admire a full moon
Difficult is to see the other side

Easy is to get a diamond ring
Difficult is to carry it on right wing

Easy is to criticize others
Difficult is to improve oneself

Easy is to set rules
Difficult is to follow them

Easy is to love a wrong person far away from
Difficult is to recognize the right person standing next to you

Easy is to make mistakes
Difficult is to learn from then

Easy is to think about improving
Difficult is to stop thinking about it and put it into action

Easy is to think badly of others
Difficult is to give them benefit of the doubt

Easy is to receive
Difficult is to give

Easy is to read this
Difficult is to follow.

Special Moments

Special Moments

Every special moment
Which embraces me with joy
Precedes dreadful torment
That makes me free to enjoy
Every special moment
Fetches love and fame
Never an instant to lament
In the midst of nature’s gave
Every special moment
Attained not abruptly
But in accomplishing perfectly
The tasks laid upon us
Every special moment
Upholds with initiation
Tends me with compassion
To attain great strides in life
But yesterday’s special moments
Are just today’s sweet memories
Beholding which ,I breathe
The ecstasy of life...

Poem By: Rahul Pandey, St.Albert's College

Why did I do it?

Why did I do it?

Why does my heart ache?
Why so much pain do I take?
To nurture something so fake….
Aye, to nurture something so fake.
Blinded was I, by the money in the purse,
Fogged was I, by the gallantry terse.
All that was but an act of commerce
And alone was I, amid the concourse.
Finally I gathered strength to through away,
That flower which never was mine any day.
For so it pricked my hand all day,
That I bled tears all along the way

INDIA'S DIVERSITY

 INDIA'S DIVERSITY
'A catalogue of Indian states specialty'


Uttar Pradesh for sugarcane,
Kerala for brain.
                  Punjab for fighting,
                  Bengal for writing.
Ghorkhas for duty,
Kashmir for beauty.
                  Rajasthan for history,
                  Maharashtra for victory.
Mysore for silk,
Haryana for milk.
                 Gujarat for peace,
                 Assam for tea-leaves.  
Himachal for apple,
Orrisa for temple.
                Madhya Pradesh for tribals,
                Bihar for minerals.  
States for unity,
India for integrity.

          That’s all India’s diversity.

Angel

Angel

An angel from heaven
With imaginary wings
A charming face 
Like a rose in vase.


Eyes are bright
Hip long hair
Cheeks are red
Like a rose bud.


Sweet as a honey
Soft as silk
Cute like kitten
Truly, an angel from heaven!!!!!

A Reason To Cheer!

A Reason To Cheer!

Why am I alive?
Why am I here?
With not a reason to cheer
Oh! How can I smile?
When my mother land cries;
With no food to eat,
And no water to drink.
Oh! How can I celebrate?
When my mother land is in mourning,
For terrorist are its citizens,
And violent are its rules.
Oh! How can I be merry?
And eat a few cherry;
When my land is all worry;
And people, its dear ones burry.
Oh! How can I be goy?
When my land is in dismay
In the name of peace, we fight
And hopes its burden light.
The ‘rich’ octopus sucks its nectar,
And the ‘selfish’ giant drains its white.
Oh! How can I listen, to the voice,
So sweet of nature;
Or see Mother Nature in the glory enchanting.
For my native land is flowing,
With blood that’s red in glowing;
The wind that still is blowing,
Brings the grave echoing!!!
Still reason I have to cheer,
For I am still a being who can turn the steering
And make that big DIFFER!!!!!
