Nostalgia

-

I was rushing in and out of my house,
Trying my luck at getting
Everything in order
The bustle of the vehicles on the road,
The tinkling of the plates in the kitchen,
The uproar of the kids inside,
When all of a sudden ,
I tripped and fell
Fell over something yonder
Fell over something hard!
My eyes couldn't believe
What I beheld ,nor could it deny
It was my age old toy,
My all time companion
Lying before me, as it was,
All in place,fair and well,
The talking bunny!
Memories flooded my head,
As I saw my bunny,
Now in my middle ages,
I find it more than wierd,
But back then it seemed more than a toy
It had been my sole true mate
To  whom I kept no gaps,no distance,
To whom words would flow out,
Like a stream flowing into the river!
My brain was saturated with emotions,
As I saw this motionless creature.
Once my life was centred around it,
When all my joys and sorrows it knew,
Or so I thought!
Nostalgia...it fills my soul!
It reminded me,
Made me peek,
Peek into those colorful days
When all I would do was play,play and play,
With zest and zeal ,
With my bunny!
Its long ears captivated me,
Its red yes looked appealing,
Its limbs made me joyous
Its wide mouth with bunny teeth
Indulged me into histerics.
Now all I know is that
Its nothing, but my own reflection,
My own response
Nothing but me,
Nostalgia!
The bunny, I know , won't be
Forever with me.
But I do know ,fair and well,
That the memories it has given me
The thoughts,the emotions,
The nostalgia,
Will last for a hundred years or more,
Till I cease to be nothing but dust,
Till I cease to be nothing but nostalgia!

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 ...
