THE
The little girl’s eyes darted from side to side.
Her eyes, reflecting the horror around. WAR
Scores of wounded shuffled relentlessly behind
But not one from whose mouth escaped a sound. 57
For seven long years the girl had suffered
Yet, she was still so strong at heart.
Her life had barely eight years covered
But, like an adult, she was forced to play a part.
Her parents were lands away from her.
She knew no one around; She was alone.
Her determination to proceed was a constant reminder
Of her parents who were up in heaven’s abode.
Their own people had turned against them
The innocent, blamed and punished.
Compelled to evacuate the country which had stemmed
A war that had just begun to flourish.
For miles they walked , leaving memories behind,
Eventually reaching the shore.
It comprised of boats arranged to find
A safe haven that, for them, would open up their doors.
For the first time ever, the girl was prepared
To not be mistreated, misunderstood and mistaken.
She was ready to speak up and have her thoughts be shared
To break free from the stigma ; To awaken.
While her thoughts consumed her, commotion arose
They had finally reached safe land!
No sooner had the sand touched her toes
Than things went contrary to her plan.
Screams echoed through the air around her
As bullets pierced through everyone.
The girl stood still, frozen with fear;
She knew this was the last day she’d see the Sun.
When a bullet finally shot through her chest
Down her cheek rolled a tear.
The grim reaper would take her to her parents nest,
And for once, she had no fear.

[the above poem is based on the unfortunate Syrian refugee crisis]

Made me break down into tears.

The insulted one, the painful lone,

My heart broken into so many pieces which was ready to join for
none.

I became a part of it with full of dreams,
While returning.. my brain and brawn full of screams.

It was a deal with no feelings of love and care,
How can anyone expect to accept it and bear?

That sunny, warm bright day,
With indication of full of gay
Was for me gloomy anyway
Like the water after sunset in the bay.

With delight , I bid farewell to this
With no sadness or hiss of bliss

As the experience was like the painful death of a fish.
In the near future, this experience I am never going to miss!

And the days went by like paper in the wind Diksha Jain
Too fast when we wanted moments to last the Most. I SEBA ‘C’
Too slow when we did not.
No words can describe
The people I met,
The friends I made,
And most of all the times I had.

Why I don’t feel unhappy leaving school
Forgetting the true essence of it all
Even though it’s all ending.
I’m grateful for the fact that it ever happened.

Girls are princesses for their parents
And they grow up listening to fairy tales.

Are we there for them in need,

or do we blindly kill them for our greed?

They were hungry there was no one to feed them.,

they had no clothes, there was no one to clothe them.

Children cried, some died and some wounded,

in this trauma how could they go to bed?

We travelled in cars, they had to run bare foot,

We decorated our homes, did they have any?

We relaxed on our sofas and beds, they wandered searching,

for a place to rest.

Wrecked houses, torn clothes, scratches and bruises was all they had.

For peace had disappeared, violence was all they heard.

But we pretend that we know nothing of this.

The one’s responsible for their pain are resting peacefully,

as they know no one’s going to stand against them,

no one’s going to blame them for spilling the blood of the innocent
people.

But it’s all over now, the innocent ones are left with nothing.

Their place turned into ashes,

and we are back to normal again.

A normal day for many, but a

new chapter in our life began- called JNC.
It seems like yesterday when we entered

what the future held for us. The questions
in our minds were numerous like, Will our
teachers be strict? Is PUC going to be tough?
or as simple as Oh wait a minute! Dude

Now as this amazing chapter is coming
to an end, I look back at the beautiful and

Will shelter me from sorrow and pain. Literature and grammar with willing laughter!
Or merely help me to build a shield, In Hindi we learn beyond the book,

Why do I have so many subjects to study?

When not even one wants to become my buddy…

Doing the difficult subtraction and addition in Mathematics

The dates and kings of history

And the equations of chemistry,

To me, it’s all just a mystery!!!

The grammar and literature of English

Why can’t it be as fun as Krrish?

The different land and water forms of geography,

Why can’t I learn all in a jiffy?

The government that I have to learn in political science,

Why can’t it be as easy as rhymes? WTihsihnfkuinlg

Why should I learn Kannada, French or Sanskrit?

When I can easily go and play cricket

And not repeat “Twinkle Twinkle little star”!
