AS I LAY READING TIME TO BELIEVE

As I lay reading Wodehouse, Trust your body and soul
On my old trusty Treehouse,
A big black bear scrambled up, They reflect you whole
To leave me all fumbled up! Every step you put forward
Credits your victory onward.
Left with no choice
But to slither down, Reaping success is a journey
All I could do was to Failures are no tyranny
Be silent as a fawn.
Every hurdle that you happen to face
Must be overcome with complete ease
Looking up I saw him Cdt A Md Sheik Abdullah
Gobbling on the hives, Every problem has a solution 6035, XI, Chola
This surely would've left him Solving them need firm resolution
Wobbling in jives!

As I was reading Bond,
I smelled chicken curry
Of which I was fond, Cdt.G.Sidharth RAIN RAIN
So I ran home in a hurry,
6273, Class, “ GO AWAY!
Pallava House
Guess what I then found,
A panther in the kitchen!
Which left me all bound Cdt.K.Vijay Chinnasamy
To the oor like lichen. 6526, VII-C Chola
The constant usage of cell
Makes us quite dull.
Deciding that I am not its food It emits colourful light There is a funny routine for the rain
It left me alive for good. That makes us feel delight. It makes us puzzle on working days,
But nothing was left of the curry All that we do is Midas's touch When we go to school, it doesn't.
For which I'd come in a hurry! but when we return home, it does.
Which opens our desired pitch When we go for health run, it doesn't,
We play games without budging an inch but when we go for games, it does.
Later it proves a haunting pinch When we fall in for roll call, it doesn't
Let's use this necessary evil less but when we go for a movie, it does.
Cdt S Ashwath And get into a world of complete bliss You are highly unpredictable!!

A MYSTERY



Oh! It is a home away from home My favourite teacher is X

And makes you feel at home He teaches us X
He is a well mannered person
You might have stepped in alone He is a hale and hearty person

but it gives you pals to cheer Of course he is old

If You have trouble with cough, But what he teaches us is gold

The physical training drives it tough We learn sharp and own them bold

It gives a never ending friendship, But the mystery is
Who is this “Mr X”.
This builds your future relationship

It makes you a gentleman Cdt A M Kavish
6714, VII, Pandya
And helps do what you can.

It teaches you to swim A BEAUTIFUL DREAM

Against all odds of time. I was surrounded by players plenty

You may get a home elsewhere I moved overtaking my opponents by fooling.

But none like this anywhere. I made my dribble very exhilarating.
I puzzled others with my tackling
It is a life time opportunity
I kicked the ball that came rolling
To become an Amaravian prime And scored a goal with a roaring.
Always sing it in your own rhyme Cdt R Ragul Rangaraj At last I woke up to know that
5958, XII, Pallava
It was only my day dreaming

THE STRONGEST BOND




Oh! Defenders of the border,
You are sons of the highest order. We met seven years ago as strangers
When we all are in sleep, Talking about all kinds of power rangers
You all are on a leap. Friendship bloomed when we grew stronger,
Surveillance in the Sea, We were wise to get rid of danger.
Our parents got us snacks
Security in the Air, At midnight we foraged one another's rucksacks
Guarding the marshy terrain.
We patted the birthday boys with love
We salute you And smeared cake cream on their face.
Our pride is our Armed Forces, We never spoke anything unclear,
And that was always nice to hear,
Our future remained bright and clear,
Cdt A R Madhav The day of passing out was a shiver
6282,IX - C, Pallava As friends it has been a long way,
And those beautiful memories never fade away.
NATURE'S BEST GIFT
Cdt K KISHORE KUMAR
There are trees around us , 5954, XII, Pandya
They always look fresh.
They have grown stronger CHILDHOOD
But they may be no longer.
They make the earth greener, When I was young,
The oxygen they release is cleaner I was plumb.
They are standing very tall For every bite,
But a cyclone makes them fall. I used to have a ght.
Felling them for recharging our When I started to wallow
life cord. I became shallow
Will soon take us to the graveyard.. When I dreamt about a plane
I was hit with a cane.
I had a fawn
to play with on the lawn
I miss my childhood
When I am forced to earn my livelihood Cdt. V. Krishna

THE MANGO TREE
THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE

A mango tree stands spread over
My grandfather planted it long before On the day of remembrance we assemble
They have grown cheerfully together To salute our martyrs who remain adorable
Defending what we hold dear.
On hot summer days we go together
And play under it to escape the arid weather In all dark and deadly mire
There are birds on top with their nests. They proved their mettle fair
And brave to give their all
The squirrels run around searching raw nuts To destroy danger once for all
Its fruits are juicy and sweet They made their ultimate sacrice
We pluck and savour its treat Fighting our enemies too erce
It never exposes its pain We keep them close to our hearts
But serves us without any gain.
And they are our military stalwarts
I am proud of my grandfather
Whose gesture will lead me farther

Cdt Sivam Sharma
STEPS OF LIFE 6164, Chera


A MOTHER

Life is full of choices Take time to work, it is the price of success.
The road you choose decides your future Take time to think, it is the source of power.
Our entire life is made up of choices Take time to play, it is the secret of perpetual youth.
Our actions proclaim the attitude we possess Take time to read, it is the foundation of wisdom.
All depends on the steps we take. Take time to be friendly, it is the road to happiness.
Choosing between Take time to dream, it makes you a star.

As she brings a new life to earth, I am not my emotions.
A Mother is a ne blend of love and honour; Which are temporary in nature
As she comforts her children day and night;
I may be the one
A Mother dispels the fear and teaches the right Who am I?
As she wants her children not to go out of gear Born to etch my name in history
A Mother knows the pains and pleasures of her children
As she just makes out what is inside their minds
A Mother pours immeasurable love on her children
As they are the most precious wealth she has gotten
