    Thank You

    A chance encounter
    A wave of hand
    A familiar face
    A breaking smile
    
    Triggers a train of thought
    A walk down memory lane
    Vivid images of cherished times
    Of growing up and carefree lives
    
    Classroom pranks and innocent lies
    Stolen lunches and greedy bites
    Muddy shoes and loose hung ties
    Of friendships stronger than family ties
    
    
    The teachers who fanned our imagination
    With a word of praise and the occasional stick
    An encouraging smile for every puzzled look
    Of discovering a world beyond text books
    
    It all comes back each time I pass you by
    I find myself await another smile
    This perhaps is a good time to say this
    For its been brewing for a while
    
    
    Everything I've ever wanted or wanted to be
    For making me who I am or ever will be
    Thank you dear Alma Mater
    For being a part of me

    Halcyon Days

    Float back to the days...
    
    Where the days were long and the nights were longer
    Times when we were young and the nights were younger
     
    To the days where our thoughts were free
     Times when the breeze was cool and so were we!
     
    Bottles emptied through the night
     A minor argument, a big fight
     
    Things that went wrong and those that went right
     Endless movies and highway rides
    
     Guys who spent hours in front of the mirror admiring their looks
     Guys who slept through the night while others sat with their books
     
    Guys who topped, yet others who flopped
     It all comes back when you walk down that lane
    
     A drink in your hand without bothering who pays
     Beautiful memories……..those Halcyon Days
