i remember

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Playing in the rain
The peace of mind
And joy of heart
I remember

first day of college                       \\ Aug 2003
watched "Tere naam"               \\while my classmates were ragged ..haw haw
that spoiled brat
i remember

small class
32 students
6 rows 2 columns
i remember

the teddybear
the hitler
the sisters
i remember

skipping lectures
failing maths
hating teachers
i remember

the little canteen
the birthdays
the soft drinks,the pastry's
the cornettos
i remember

the lunch breaks
the fighting for my mom's maggi
sukku's lassi,Akhil's dhokla,
shilki's red-chilly achar,sheetal's sandwiches
i remember

and even the bus
Where we should have fallen in love
those fights,the "ram-ladoo's"
i remember


She wanted to say but didn't have the nerve
A half smile crosses my lips
I remember.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



P.S.
It was supposed to be more
Wherever you are
There's far too much of me in there.

  11. I still remember the beatings :-) that I got and never earn. ;-)

    I have the long for remembering dhokla. I should have some dhokla to have the pleasure of the memory of dhokla. You know, I'm argentinian, it's this tango culture that made us melancholics, even inclined to the future, or to a memory we don't have yet :-)
