Ripples of Ecstasy – Delhi Poetry Slam

Ripples of Ecstasy

By Arunima Biswas

Encompassing portable memories with boundaries to ponder
A shelter from every delirium and swaddling innocent wonder;
The universal locus of budding future beyond the set rule
The reason for smile and an incubating childhood, is a school.

Glances through the nook and corner gives immense pleasure
Unfolding knowledge and wisdom one can seldom measure
Yet these blends, creating unique identities with wings
To conquer the world as fearless minds not puppets with strings.

Joyous emotion echoes in every school both in process and progress
From weft and waft of thoughts, creativity to experience and express
A hub of fused efforts giving rise to millions of fostering dreams
With a simple look, an arduous place where life lesson gleams.

How miraculous it is to behold a child grow by leaps and bounds
In the sands of time, the imprints, footprints and cheer mounds
In an innocuous place tiding over the challenges and fear
With the passage of time, these moments becomes most dear.

We cultivate bliss in different situations and instants of life
Values and ethics ingrained at school helps in moments of strife
Exaltation evolves when transformations, nostalgic moments are nourished
In the sunset years of life, school and childhood days are most cherished.
