Metaphors to our school life, 

Evidence of our ability to dream, 

Lawyers to those bored of lectures, 

Listeners to stories — mostly unspoken ones, 

Frames to our natural cameras,

Stenographers of our train journeys, 

Involuntary sidekicks to perverted stalkers, 

Unpaid workmen for looters and shooters,

Under-appreciated third wheels to summer love and snuck-in flying kisses,

Decorators of player transfers in football,

Hosts of some in

timate big people talks,

Speaking French, descriptors to our dream homes, 

A carefree guardian that opened "gates" to the world,

Carriers of messages from highs to lows,

From flying merchants beyond the clouds, 

To levitating astronauts, defying gravity. 

Heartbroken romantics to hard-hit cricket balls,

Adorning cars that made movies like "Titanic" Memorable for the boys :)

When most of the doors to life are closed, 

There are always windows of hope.
