Jai Hind

A PATRIOTIC POEM

People – they are afraid of death,

When they really don’t know

Its true meaning.

But I am not;

For I have seen my brother

Wrapped in the Tiranga,

With an invisible and content

Smile on his face.

And that has changed it all.

Now, I dare to play

On tall mountains and in dense forests.

The game,

Where my victory is India,

Defeat is Fear

And award is Death.

Thus I do not fear;

For I’ll embrace that Death

Which calls me shouting “Jai Hind”

And takes me to my Tiranga…

MAD MATHS

Lipakshi A.Dalvi - XB

This subject is so boring,

Yet some people find it scoring.

Prior to the exams I get nightmares,

That all the attempts go wrong and the paper then the teacher tears.

I always curse the person who invented this subject,

And for him my heart is full of hate.

When the teacher is teaching I completely understand the sum,

I don't know what happens in the exams, I mess up and come back home.

My brain stops functioning,says

Buddy,let's give up over this thing!

You know?

How shameless I m ,

Instead of practising Geometry,

I'm composing this poetry!

We will make our country the Best

  

 Harshali D Nagwekar -XA

It's our time to wake up

let's make our country secure

where every individual plays an important role

we will make our country the Best

It's our time to spread happiness

let's make our country satisfied

where every individual is a part of our family

we will make our country the Best

It's our time to be united

Let's make our country powerful

where every individual thinks about our country

we will make our country the Best

It's our time to spread cleanliness

Let's make our country ‘The Clean India’

Where every individual thinks about nature

we will make our country the Best

It's our time to be patriotic

Let's make our country proud

where every individual takes a step towards surroundings

we will make our country the Best

                                                                                                                                               ************             

It’s Our India

Kshitij Pawar - XB

Let’s make a country,

free from corruption.

Let the ideas from the young minds,

Come out like a volcanic eruption.

Let’s hoist our flag,

So high in the sky.

Where no living being,

Has ever tried to fly.

Let our deeds,

Be pinned as records.

Wherever we go, people should proclaim-

“Here come the legends!”

Whenever we’ve been inquired,

“For what do we stand?”

“We mind our own business,

And serve our motherland!”

Let the blood lost,

Never go in vain.

Always remember,

It is less than the gain.

Let’s make a mark,

Darker than a stain.

Who won the match?

It’s India again!

Whatever you do,

Never feel shy.

Remember,

You have got wings to fly.

In terms of boundaries,

Our country may be small.

But united we stand,

Divided we fall.

THE GOLDEN ENVELOPE

Lipakshi A. Dalvi - XB

Our country has a golden envelope,

Which has a message to make it developed.

But for that, we all need to come together,

And take efforts and make our India better .

We should think,slog,dream and have high hopes,

Expecting,on the way of prosperity 
there will be many ups and downs and slopes.

To overcome them all, alternatives, 
solutions we should find.

The most important key we must have is,

We should be determined!

The Golden envelope has a smooth,
silky and rich ribbon, made up of 
threads of great culture and heritage.

This envelope has a frail but
 beautiful design of patriotic heroes and sage.

Inside this envelope,there are many secrets,

Which’ll conquer and win over 
all the black clouds of hates.

There are also some seeds in the envelope,

To help the country to become strong and developed.

When the seeds will be sown on the land of India,

There will be a new dawn and a new beginning of India.

When these seeds will grow big into plants and then trees,

It will cover whole world with happiness and peace.

So,what are we waiting for?

Let's open the envelope,and

Let our country develope!

Let's all witness this with our eyes,

And let India prosper in all aspects and in all skies,

I desperately wish that,

Let it develope until limitless heights!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star 

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star 

The world is full of corruption yaar. 

Freedom is just an expression, 

You must not take any tension. 

 

Independence is not just a word  

It can be taught through poems and verse. 

Be the fighters of an independent world  

Like the eagle flying to catch a small bird. 

 

But now, from today the times will change 

As the old people have started to age. 

Their tech,their guns and their ammunitions 

Will be replaced by the new generations. 

 

So now, rise up for a better world  

As you are its part like a small tiny bird. 

Hunt your enemies and kill ‘em down 

As you are fighting for a big crown. 

 

Lift your spirits and turn ‘em on, 

As you’re fighting for a war 

 Which you’ve already won. 

 

People back then were called freedom fighters  

Who laid down their lives to overthrow Britishers 

We must fight for our country’s name

Not for money and fame. 

My Views On Plastic Ban

Aarya Sawant - XA

23rd June 2018, another historical day after demonetisation. The day of plastic ban in Maharashtra. Plastic, the companion since 1907, that turned into a backstabber. It was on its way to backstab nature.

But we are safe now as the government of Maharashtra has banned plastic. I mean to say partially safe. Yes, because we just banned plastic but what is the substitute for it. That we don’t know. Many of us just don’t want to know. We are just happy with the plastic ban just as we were quite happy using it. Who cares for the consequences?

'The Rome was not built in a day.' This phrase completely suits the current situation. The decision was surely appreciable. No doubt about it. But to implement some decisions we need  backup plans. And unfortunately the government forgot to have their backup plan ready. There were many new heads, who were trying to peep out , with a solution for plastic, a substitute . But no one paid attention to them due to many personal and political reasons. Actually there is a phrase in Marathi whose English translation is: One starts digging the well after he feels thirsty. And so, what is the solution now? There are no loopholes to come out of this issue. Instead of thinking now, we should have thought of it before.

Many people are still confused about the ban. No one knows which plastic is allowed and which is not. Even the officers that are charging us are not knowing, which plastic is actually banned. According to the decision of government 2.5mm plastic, polythene bags, plastic bottles and low grade plastic is banned. Whereas the plastic bags of good quality for e.g. The one we get in branded clothes stores, the plastic which is used for the packaging of medicines are still allowed. But still we maybe charged due to ignorance.

Due to this sudden decision the hotel businesses had to face a lots of loss. Even the fine is much too high at this stage. If proper substitutes would have been made available then the fine was surely understandable. Therefore, this decision seems to have just constructed a new way for the municipal officers to earn some easy money. Some are just on a rampage, charging the innocent public unnecessarily.

Yes, the decision was for the welfare of people and nature. But the way to implement it was not at all correct .
