Reliving Journey of Love: 10 Years


The Journey which lasted 10 years
it seems as if has begun again.
When I had to cross threshold of Written, GD and PI
With a demo to clear, in order to work
for children who mattered to me a lot!

It was never teaching she thought,
They blew her up then and now!
She shouted, she screamed, she made a point they learned!
But, affectionate and loving they were
changed her a lot!

A blessing in disguise they were, she thought
She read and read, in order to make it easy for them
That’s the only methodology she learned, while teaching!
Words black, dead and dry came alive when she spoke.
But, it was their rich laughter,
Music and boon, she held close!

She is PARTIAL: accused she was
Alternative students have more love,
is what they complained of!
She understood, being Residential, they wanted more Love!
Love is and never can be enough
for children who have been sweet Devil-Angels:
All full of LOVE!

But, something in between, left her bitter
where are they, she always wandered!
When she sat down calmly,
She wished and blessed all of them from her heart.
Even if she might have taught them once!

Teaching in University and while in Research
She had almost forgotten what it was
Until she did, what she hadn’t done for long.

That is when the realization dawned on her, and her conscience spoke,
“They are all your children, have you forgotten!”
It was the colour RED,
which made her realize, how much she had hurt!
Reflection of her own PAIN, she saw in them!
While, the SMILE and Laughter of the children
soon, warmed her COLD HEART!

Teaching was just a way
Giving away Love, is what they taught me again!
Eyes glinting with mischief,
Laughing and laughter, will always be their trademark!

HERO of their life
they will always
make,
What they have always dreamt of!
“My Children,” I can always say them
Though miles and miles may separate US!

Blessed be they, where a child full of LOVE resides,
For Blessings and Good Wishes,
is what my heart will always sing for them!
