Back To School!

Through the mirror,

of time,

I look.. and the I see..

Slowly I reach out..

And I can almost feel...

I close my eyes,

and I am transported,

back into a time,

when everything was- Grand!

The friendships,

over the gossips in class,

the leg pulling, which often,

went too far!

The washrooms,

that were more like,

the rooms to exchange,

notes on boys and on change,

in fashion, Mind You!

The crushes, 

that went by..

not even giving you,
a second glance,

and the friends,

who made sure that,

they embarrass you,

till you blush.. and get red,

like a cherry tart!

From the Uniform, 

to disregarding it,

from the exams to,

the annual days..

from competing to be the best,

to flunking in your favourite subject..

School days,

have that charm.. that,

even after years, 

when you pass by that gate,

You wish you could go inside,

and stay on.. and live that life,

over again.. 

for once!

PS: I met a couple of my school teachers recently, and then, all of a sudden, the whole back to school feeling and nostalgia is getting me! So this is for my lovely schools.. I am gonna be a lil biased, I love AFBBS more than Modern.. Because, I always value my foundations that were laid in AFBBS... Modern just added one more brand.

But never the less, both were my schools, and I Miss my School!
