Towards the twilight of my stay here
lots of memoirs walk past the eyes
when friends were million dollars dear
and life was a rainbow in blue skies
abundance of free time during the nights
wake up calls were a waste
when countless stars lit up the sight
and dew enhanced night tea's taste
when aromas of thoughts floated along
in the backside of lecture halls
a hundred artworks will live for long
on the wooden benches and walls
sitting for hours in shades of the trees
munching potatoes wrapped in gram flour
unlocking life's mysteries with dream's keys
while plucking the petals of a flower
said unsaid, known unknown
I've been a part of this land
now day draws close when I would be gone
to hold life's new phase's hand
to cherish the stay I write this down
today; to be read again...
while I walk in a different town
with the sandalwood key chain!
