LEGACY OF A PASSIONATE TEACHER.

Life is a roller coaster ride, we will all experience the surge of it. We never know what turn it takes to. The misery of lying on your bed, ill with your school and students a few yards away from you.

If classroom is a stage, a teacher is an artist and the students are audience and judges too. The whole drama unfolds with all animation, articulation and emotions. Like a perennial river, energy and enthusiasm are at brim. The passionate lectures and the quizzical expressions are a must watch.

Words, words and more words echo the room. When similes, metaphors join hands with onamatopae and naughty puns reel round. The jingling alliteration with her bestie consonance, refraining the class, each of the one in class thrilled to core. when villaneous bell, enjamb(ment)s the TLP to next day, crest fallen faces are to be pitied. When transferred epithets and oxymorons replace the names of students will it not be an occasion for the students to chuckle.

Now the world of literature barges in your class. Shakespeare is witty, Browning mutters in monologues, Keats if forlorn through his odes, Words worth lost in the lapse of Nature, Frost is suffering with nostalgia for New England, Tagore groping in mysticism, Sarojini Naidu in the lanes of Indianess and Kamala Das obsessed with feminism, Ruskin Bonds taking on tour to Hill. Bards and Ballard enrich your world. glitches, telltales, heart and mind wrenching unrecorded stories of the master artists in the class, just spice to the show.

What to speak of the frame work of language which makes your learning tough lest it should become Achilles Heel. Grammar like headmaster imposes rules and regulations with vigorous practice to make you confident and the conventions instilling more and more formats and expressions make you skillful.

Oh! my world tumbles down like twin towers, with no school and students. Will Gods show pity on me and help me to recover soon, so that I continue with my English drama once aga

( Gods are the one whom I believe and the doctors in whom I have indelible faith,)

LETTER FROM A FUTURE HUMAN

My Dear ancestors.  perhaps you had never thought about me, all that you had done, were burying yourselves in the creations/ innovations you were pride about. I had grown up listening to the anecdotes of my grandparents about our planet being blue, green and brown. but what i see around me only grey, smoggy and parched landscapes, just a dismal visual. You have conditioned your lives according to your material prosperity and unconditioned the bounty of nature. I heard that you were warned about the repurcusions for being indifferent, negligent and irresponsible but all that you heeded was about unhealthy rat race. the governments were too boastful about infrastructure development and at the cost of environment. conclaves, summits, meeting all that you had only with a shallow talks. Your words in the air still echo in our hearts but with little actions.  Today our textbooks are replete with issues and more issues but with no solutions. you always appealed to us about envi...

GOOD SAMARITANS The recent death of Mr. Narayan Reddy the famous stalwart cook of grandpa kitchen, had sent me into deep reverie.  The demise of this septuagenarian is lose to all those kids whom he had fed with all love and care. All this brought to me the very image of all those septuagenarians and above who possesses  the warmth and bonhomie feeling. I always wonder how my mother and her sister siblings are so loving and always being hospitable. Not only my mother that entire generation I owe them a huge respect. I am in late forties, but with all shame I tell your I get panic when extra members come to my  home during lunch or dinner time. It is not that I don’t have heart to welcome them, but I don’t know how much, what and where to start my preparation. Many a time I feel it a great  inconvenience, in contrast I wonder from where would that generation get that spirit to cook and serve with all affection and  care. I ponder what is wrong with us. ...
