Recollections! Poem by Debasish Mishra

When I recollect d memories..
Insane moments, crazy stories
When Time passed wid crackers & cricket
& myriad travels sans a ticket
Scuffles, fights, misunderstanding
Just to finish wid a happy ending
Useless banter, impolite jokes
Timely refreshed by tea & smokes
& oft an attack on sentiments
Wid cocky grins & caustic comments
Oh, d poor fair gender
vulnerable & truly tender!
Reluctance 2 rummage gems in books
& skipping classes like born-crooks!
Was it d joyous journey of growth
Or d wastage of my barren youth?
