A Nostalgic Dream
A Nostalgic Dream
I remember the sweet dream now
Seen in my adolescent dense brow
While I was sitting in the class room
For grasping the curricular boom
Teacher's grim face makes me right
Draw back my fickle mind's sight
That strikes on the face of classmate
She casts her suppressed curved look
Unbased love crops up like a brook
Study bound apprentice I was then
Ambition and spirit was ever within
Moral lessons of elders sleep in shade
Romance and love-glance ever pervade
Gradual perseverance made me stand
As a good lovelorn student in hot sand
I went building on my image of ideal
That forced me to build the career deal
Adolescent was replaced with youth
Complete oblivion pushed me to sunbath
Sweet dreams of my past girl class mate
No more dazzled then in my mind's gate
Earning lively hood instigate me then on
Conjugal bond forced me until I sign on
Decade after decade rolled on and on
Putting me in the melancholy dungeon
Now I wear the crown of senior citizen
Amusing myself with my grand children
I sit and play at home hide and seek now
Keeping aside the school's romantic row
Pushing my teen memoirs into the well
I enthrone her as a dream land queen well.
