School- My Second Home. Poem by Henal Jasani

Scared and frightened we came in as toddlers
In a huge gate that said, 'CARMEL OF ST. JOSEPH'S'
We got the right knowledge and guidance
Not to forget the care and affection
I love my teachers so hearty and hale
And yes! dear Sr. Shalom as well
You have shaped our characters and mind
And have made us so generous and kind
Now we are ready to face this world
But with a sorrow that you wont be accessible
And this busy world doesn't even bother
To ask you 'how are you dear? '
Sometimes I wonder why did you leave us alone?
To face this big bad world forlorn!
