WHEN I'LL BID ADIEU

feelings of a student about saying goodbye to the school where she had studied for 14 years!!!!!!

  When one day passes,
The other comes,
Everything changes,
Leaving some,
The 'LOVE', the 'CARE', the 'concern' and
'JOY', that I have received here, was a great fun.

Now has the day come to bid Adieu,
To these wonderful feelings I received.
When I remember, those days so sweet,
When I was a kid of four or five!!
My school taught me, the "ART OF LIFE"..

The way to 'sit', the way to 'stand', the way to
'take', the way to 'understand'
All of this, which were first to me unknown,
My teachers and parents made to me known.

Now, today, after days long back,
When i sit and remember those lovely days,
I can deeply feel the love, care and concern,

Besides those scoldings those days.
I also remember those, swings so sweet,
The lovely flowers, and rhymes so sweet,
like 'TWINKLE-TWINKLE' and 'CHUBBY CHEEKS' .

Time has passed, and I have grown,
No more swings, and no more rhymes,
but its not that, that there's no fun.
When today,I look at the children so cute,
Of three, or four, or five of age:
I can perceive the ART OF LIFE;
It's nothing great, but only this,
"WHEN YOU LIVE, DAY TO DAY;
LIVE TO GIVE, because , the MORE YOU
GIVE, THE MORE YOU LIVE !!!

MY teachers also taught me a wonderful thing;
about success; that,
"DO ANYTHING; but with THE WILL TO WIN".

I hope what i want to say is--
"WHEN YOU LIVE DAY TO DAY ;
Don't live by what people, remark or say;
"BUT, LIVE BY WHAT YOU KNOW IS
TRUE."

Finally to conclude, I'd only say;
"O my lovely school, and wonderful
Teachers,
When I'll adieu ;
I'll really, really, really,
MISS YOU!!!!!!!!

Awww.............. very cute, but it made me sad! I loved this poem! *tear* I think my friend may be feeling the same way. She had to leave our school system because her family had to move, and she mooovvvveeeedddd reeeaaaaaallllllyyyyyy fffffaaaaaarrrr aaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy. But, she'll be going back to our school next year, so YAY! One question... Is the poem about you, or somebody else?

u and ur poems are really versatile and worthwhile

I think almost everyone who's ever been in a school will be able to relate to this poem. You feel excited and happy about leaving, but you also feel intensely sad. Because the place was almost a second home to you for all those years. I felt pretty sad when I left my school. But the excitement of what lies beyond helps soften those feelings. Another brilliant poem.

a sweet poem of remembrance.

You grasped my fear perfectly! I also will miss my school when i leave! But that day will come! :)

Great write!

Conclusions are always difficult. We take what we have learned and we are happy for the gifts, but we are also sad because of the stark finality. I think it is the human condition...being a little afraid of change and feeling nostalgic about the past.

Really touching write. I like the words
"Don't live by what people, remark or say;
"BUT, LIVE BY WHAT YOU KNOW IS
TRUE." "... The poem has many great words of wisdom, they teached you well at that school :)

[AdorableDreams]

This poem is really sweet, but yet sad at the same time. Great job!

Clearly heartfelt poem about the lives that have touched you and that you have touched in early days of school. It gives the reader a warm feeling of intact connections, but also the inevitability of traveling further on the timeline to meet new souls. You were a precocious girl who soaked up all the knowledge, advice, answers and beauty you encountered; and you knew those were the real treasures, those and the lovely people you would remember. I was a Navy brat, moved all the time, and I value enormously the kaleidoscope of people, languages, landscapes and experiences I was treated to.
