Timeless Memories...

A punch, then kick, slowly the voices rise,
Cadence in this din sure will surprise,
Calmly you watch, but stop not the fight,
Curses today seem not-vulgar but right.

Unheard languid lessons of 'a saint',
Delivered so near, yet feel so faint,
Preferred is a nap on a distant bench,
Digested are lexical cards that appear french.

Young lovers busy in a lonely spot,
Some socrates is lost in a deep thought,
Words of Neeman hide behind Godfather's,
The pen-fight starts and then the crowd gathers.

Laughter that flows around the place,
Shows sharing, youth and unity of race,
Ripples of joy that touch your heart,
Have fire so warm, you become its part.

With the break starts mission- 'attacking food',
No ambrosia of lords seems so good,
Togetherness must be that exotic spice,
That we raid even the overdone fries.

Sometimes when these memories roll,
Bitter sweet feelings reach my soul,
Every moment, with me it stays,
True, nothing like the college days.
