FERGUSSON TIMES


I woke up every morning
Looking eagerly at the day ahead.
A day at dear old Fergi
With great friends I had made.

                         I walk into room no. R-6
                        As usual 15 minutes late.
                        At least 10 faces would smile,
                        They are used to the wait.

The lecture reels off in fun
And the next few we'd bunk.
Spend the time in the KIMAYA
Cheering up any face that's sunk.

                        Sharing a Pepsi among 11
                        And fighting for the last sip.
                        Tying up some shoe-laces
                        Or climbing to the KIMAYA's tip.

The pracs were real fun;
Ice down the shirt in chemistry,
Four great doctors in biology,
But physics was always a mystery.

                        Those fun hours on the stairs
                        Outside the chemistry lab;
                        Or an alien from POSEIDON
                        Holding hands near the bio lab.

And then in the evening
Standing at the gate,
We'd chat, chat and chat
Till it was real late.

                   Dhotis and lungis and saris
                  Trad day was celebrated with pomp
                   Chocolate day was great
                   Dairy milks and Perks to chomp.

 And the espressos at Radhika
Or Vaishali's SPDP.
Wishing birthdays at 12 midnight
When everyone's so sleepy.

                        Hey, I almost forgot!
                        Playing truth or dare;
                        Proposing my love to someone
                        Whilst others would stare.

College days were great
And those moments real neat;
With friends so sweet
I had all I could need.
