A friend for all times

Some of the happiest times of my life,

are times you and I spend together.

For deep in my heart I've considered you special,

One of my dearest friends ever.

Once in a lifetime

If you are Lucky

You find someone

who stands beside you,

As I have found you.

Day after day I've enjoyed your nice company,

warmed by the closeness we share,

And when there were days

That I needed a shoulder,

I knew you'd always be there…

I'd like to be the sort of friend that

You have always been to me;

I'd like to be the help that

You’ve been always glad to be;

I'd like to mean as much to you

each minute of the day

As you have meant,

to me along the way.

I'd like to make you feel as strong and undaunted as I feel

in the darkest hours with you to lean upon.

I'd like to give you back the joy

that you have given me,

Yet that were wishing you a need

I hope will never be;

I'm wishing at this time that

I could but repay

A portion of the happiness that

you've given me all along;

And could I have one wish this year,

this only would it be:

I'd like to be the sort of friend

that you have been to me.

I will forever be so grateful

For having a dear friend like you-

A friend for all times,

To confide in, to count on, and treasure

A whole lifetime through.

You're a friend

For all times no matter how many tiffs we have had.

Her big day!!!

I still remember the day we 1st met.

I was too shy to say much at all,

It's funny to think back to that time,

cos it’s just not the same anymore.

In so little time how much have we shared???

I can never forget all the moments,

That you have shown me how much you cared!!!

I adore your fun-filled personality

Somehow you never fail to impress...

And I trust that with you by my side,

Everything will always be Okay.

Within you, I’ve found the perfect friend,

With whom I can be real, and never pretend.

A friendship so carefree....

Ur cries of joy &happiness, together

With your infectious laughter sets me on!!

You are always there for me,

When my spirits need a little lift.

I can never thank you enough for that

You are truly an extraordinary gift!

There were times we had our little tiffs,

Those that might have even turned out a little bigger.

But deep in my heart you were always my sweetest

Little naughty innocent girl......

Today I want to tell you this,

As a friend I have always been protective over u.

Possessive to the core.

That’s cos,

I love everything about u

You are someone I cud never replace.

You are everything to me & more

I could never express that enough....

A friendship like yours is not easy to come by,

Often the intensity of it makes me so high.

Is our friendship only a dream?

Sometimes it feels so unreal that I must scream!!!!!

I wish you a happy life ahead,

Loads of love for you are in store.

Lovely years filled with lots of happiness and laughter,

Only the very best for you from here on after.

My snapshot of the best 4 years of college

The day we Ist met..
Stepping into a world that was new,
Too shy to speak our words were few,
In so little time how much have we shared???
I can never forget all de moments,
dat u've shown me how much u cared!!!
Time progressed neat and clear
Reminding us that the end was near;
With every passing day, we near the end,
We long for the past that we could mend.
Looking back at the days gone by,
Gives us a reason to cherish and cry.
Having flashbacks of the past
Wishing those moments could only last

The Last Chapter

Our days together in college fortified with ceaseless fun, constant teasing, uncountable tiffs, ever growing love and a precious bond were all going to switch into something new, and that something was going to turn into a monotony soon. This dreadful feeling was strong and unwavering within each one of us on that day.

That day when we all felt that "today was the worst day in college".

The last day in college when all the other batch mates were missing each other, saying their good byes, we all sat in class listening to our dear HOD sir, occasionally pestering him in between to stop the lesson , but again patiently day dreaming ,reminded of the fact that this was going to be our last class together. At last the much awaited "12.30" came, sir bade his goodbyes and left.

Deep within, hidden behind outward smiles and laughter, we all thought about how every single facet of our days together had been, what made it special, how much we have changed over the years, how we had been enormously humbled in the presence of faculty, valuable lessons learned and what not...

Before we could reveal our emotions, share it with friends or tell someone that we would really miss them, pressurized by the higher authorities, we were ordered to leave the campus before the lunch break. The firmly issued order was so painful that it agitated even the "mute" amongst us. After sincere and persuasive effort from our own friends by meeting our thoughtful HOD sir, at last we got the extended time up to "2.30" .That issue had worsened the mood of most of us.

A dull silence enveloped our classroom, a silence that would make any person wonder whether there is a teacher inside.

Amidst all this, we started penning down our feelings and thoughts in each and every one of our friends’ salwars, shirts in every tiny inch of space that we cud spot in their dresses. While Alok's last few words topped with each one of our autographs covered the black board, it felt so odd, that we spent years here in this classroom and it just felt like yesterday. Mixed emotions of excitement, fear and happiness of entering into this very same crowd 4 years back all seemed so vivid. And now when everything seemed so settled it was time to leave. Many good and bad memories, Good outweighing bad all seemed so perceptible, so clear, so very apparent. We took photos together, shared whatever little food each one of us had with our friends and sat wondering in silence

We wondered 'why can’t we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together'. Holding back the tears gushing out for the fear of someone watching, there was a sort of quietness you feel as if nothing worse is ever going to happen.

Time flew by. Soon it was time to leave the classroom. It hurt to say that word "bye". As each one of us left one by one, we felt as if friends were driving away from us and slowly receding till all we could see were tiny specs dispersing.

In Your Hands (A Tribute for teachers: A Few to define the Many)

We want to cipher a small ode for you,

To thank you for every smile.

We know that you had a lot to do,

We are glad that you paused a while.

 For being a friend,

And taking time to show us,

Lessons hard to comprehend.

Your journey with us was not very easy,

If we could teach you,

We’d show you the positive effect

You have had on us and our lives.

In teaching you cannot see the fruits of a day’s work,

It remains invisible may be for years together.

Yet we mattered to you, you cared,

Cos when you reach out and touch us with your heart,

Then you hold what we are becoming in your hands...

Lessons you taught us yesterday have disappeared into time,

And though you are with us just a while today

You hold tomorrow’s smile in your hands…….

It might have appeared to go unnoticed,

But we have got it here all in our hearts..

We would be nothing without you,

Without Your blessings…

Sometimes it may seem like

students have forgotten how special you really are,

Even when it seems like no one is watching,

or when children blank out on just how important teachers are,

Teacher I will never forget what

I saw reflected in your eyes,

The somebody I could be……..

We salute you maam and sir..

You are the wind beneath our wings,

Thank you teachers, you have made all the difference…….
