Fifty two faces, bright, clean
Groomed hair, defying the
Dusty wind that
Pushes thru’ windows…
Pretty, demure girls (a total pretence :P)
Boys- Steadfast in attitude (a total sham :P)
But, forgiving of their
Nerdy, strait-jacket
Bonkered teachers
All the way!

A burgeoning thirteen (on average)
But going on Twenty 😀
In tiny tantalizing peeks
Practising the come-hither
Whatevers! 😀
Bold, brassy declarations
Experimenting always
Pushing the limits-
Their own folks’
And mine!And, much as I do
Shudder, chew imaginary nails
Worry and rage…
I must confess, that
In their sneaky
Absolutely naughty way,
They have me.
Just that!

Govind, they have me in a spot alright 🙂 I'd like to believe they do like me, and I know I do, them, a whole lot, no matter that they do try my patience very regularly :D!52 and a PVC?Then maybe an Ashok Chakra or a Bharat Ratna at least, Lol, for the 54 in Classes 9 and 10?Right. That is how it is. And still we connect with them. That, truly, amazes most of us, each day 🙂
