You all will agree that school life was best
Sharing same bench was undoubted blest

Heaven was there for these nestlings in nest
No idea of big world, everyday was fest

Different skins, uniform quashed that contest
Shoes were polished and badges on chest

One disliked his tiffin but others could digest
Football was punctured, but no fall in zest

Compass used to spin, divider stayed in rest
From pet animals to nomenclature of each pest

Notorious as school bus, nostalgic as class test
The story of nails marks, that fight, that jest

We thought it as home, but everyone was guest
Ready for their flight, tickling at the crest

Now few have jobs while others are in quest
One flock in the east, another flock in the west
