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?

Oh how I miss my school days. These my friend you will look back on and remember as some of the best days of your life. Very well done, the happiness of what was and the sadness of what is coming have shown through nicely.

A nice little bit of nostalgia, and quite well expressed considering the language difference. It's always difficult to say goodbye to those things that became second nature to us as we outgrew them. You have done well.

[Saumya]

thank you sooo very much sir!!

' "WHEN YOU LIVE, DAY TO DAY; LIVE TO GIVE, because , the MORE YOU
GIVE, THE MORE YOU LIVE !!! '

Your writing is - above everything else, sincere. You write with your heart and consequently it's very real, very touching. You have what's called 'a wise head on young shoulders'; have already learned that learning and happiness go hand in hand. Considering this is written in a second language, you use words superbly well and so, can only suggest you read as much as you can, when you can.

An artful write and well narrated. Good piece.
