My Aspirations - Gaurangi Rastogi

Childhood has been miserable,

Because you have to learn something basic,

When we grow up as a teen 

I got pressured to top the boards 

I got pressured to become a doctor 

Will the world still accept if I am something else?

I feel like running away from home, 

I think I am not safe in my home sweet home, 

I want to speak to this world, 

I have my aspirations,

To change the mindset of the people 

Who judges me based on occupation,

Who are you to control me? 

I am a phoenix who takes the rebirth from its ashes

Which is from its failures.

If you control me, 

I will control you every time,

As you made my life miserable

I will make yours, 

At the end of the story 

I have my aspirations! 


Gaurangi Rastogi 

Class VII 

The Doon Girls’ School 

Totto-chan - Anvesha Rana

                                                           

She wanted to be a spy, 

Then a ticket seller, 

After that a street musician 

And finally a ballerina. 


Her vision might wander, 

But her values never dander, 

Her life is simply yet happy, 

Then why don’t we be a little

more like her ?


She treats others with love, 

She learns all with joy, 

She yearns to find more

And ask why. 


The Farming teacher likes her, 

For she does everything with care, 

Her passion is appreciated and 

Her energy is contagious.


She might be naughty, 

But her character is good, 

She helps everyone 

And asks for nothing in return. 


So, Totto-chan, 

You are a really good girl, 

You know.
