An ode to a memory I shall cherish

Sunshine wakes me,
the room's so full of light.
the day beckons to me,
with a morning ever so bright.

the hills lazily smile at me,
the mist calls out my name,
after these two years in paradise,
my life shall never remain the same.

Captured in my heart for ever,
are those moments of pure ecstacy,
When Mother nature took it on herself,
to redefine what I believed was beauty.

Will life after God's own kampus,
ever rise to these heights,
will I ever be able to relive these moments,
enjoy the beauty, the memorable sights.

A lot have I received from my stay,
not least the nature that i have learned to appreciate,
Fortunate I am that the heavens smiled,
to bless me with such a wondrous fate.

Luv,
From Gods own Kampus,
Pranay

The day I lived a dream

Im but a drop in an ocean,
an ocean of humanity,
Striving, working,
Searching for my own identity.
I hear the waves crashing,
on the rocks of time.
Do I still believe in the fantasy,
that the entire world is mine.
I look out at the ocean,
I am humbled by it's sheer size.
Its tenacity is enviable,
receding waves that will once again rise.
I can only imagine my life,
my fate, my destiny.
the joy of successes,
the failures, the agony.
Thousands have come,
thousands will go.
shaping my life,
in a way I never know.
I have a lifefull of unknowns,
a life that I only shall live.
Prepare me oh lord,
for the experiences this life will give.
