A Dark Milky Path

-

Once I walked into the forest on a rainy day

I had to meet animals on my way


It was a dark milky path

While animals were having their bath


Strange! the way was full of trees

for a minute I had to freeze

I thought animals were cruel

but how kind they were


Snakes were slithering to me

Monkeys were jumping to me

Birds were chirping at me

Lions were roaring friendly


I thought I didn't want to leave them,

After all I want my parents


My friends lighted me the path

I was back again to sound of vehicles!

    Beautiful poem, Suruma!!! If we can see that everything around us is also us,
    the same as us,
    formed of the same substance,
    breathing the same air...then we understand the immensity of the word LOVE.
    That love is for everything, all the people around, all creatures, plants and trees, isn't it?

An Open Letter To the CBSE

To the CBSE Board,                   I'm a class 10 student from a CBSE affiliated school in Trivandrum,Kerala.I've received a CGPA(Cumulative Grade point Average) 10 for the last academic year and I hope to get the same for the board exams for which I will be appearing at the end of this academic year.I wish to pursue Social Science and aspire to work on the United Nations.I'm writing this open letter to bring to your attention my views on the much debated CCE system(Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation).                   There has been a lot of speculations lately as to whether the CBSE is going back to square one with the re-implementation of the age old system of board exams for students of CBSE schools who are at present following the CCE method,which was implemented during the UPA government's rule.I don't believe in party politics but I do believe in the power of education in transf...

A Letter to JNU

-
 Dear JNU,                 We are living in bizarre times,literally. Everybody's firing nationalism from all corners. You need to get certificates of nationalism to be proved that you're a "True Indian".Just criticizing the repressive apparatus makes you anti-national. Talking about the real issues that people face in India makes you anti-national. What is happening right now is too hard to even comprehend  because this is against the very idea of India that our constitution talks about.           What is really ironical in  this situation is that people who actually strive to alleviate the many problems that we as a country face are called anti-national,while those who let lose fascism and endanger the ideals of our constitution, teach us what nationalism is.What I don't understand is why  do they  consider it a taboo when the woes of the people of the nation are raised?Why is it that they ...
