TO MY BYGONE COLLEGE DAYS.
As I entered the meads after an eclipse,
Winds began rushing in.
As I visited the springs after a long time
A nightingale began opening her lute.
And from the rich and shady quadrangle,
I was thrown to a striking world.
Einstein and Edison bound my thoughts
And filled every inch of my heart.
I was breathing those winds,
The scientist in me was voicing again.
Those creative years from a long sleep
Stirred my mind to an immeasurable depth.
My friend Job and his ‘Book Centre' in the town,
‘Science Today' and those absorbing hours,
‘Eureka'* and the flair for my pen
All stormed in fleeting moments.
And in those rocking waves
I was swept to unknown shores.
And in those drowning moments I realised-
I was pepetually caught by those youthful winds.
