The campus these days

Some spots are special


The other day, I was left wondering all of a sudden

Why isn't this the logo for our school

Peepal, Ganga, Dufferin Bridge, walk-path, the hour of cowdust

And Yogesh's classic from Anand 

कहीं दूर जब दिन ढल जाये 

सांज की दुल्हन बदन चुराए 

चुपके से आये 


As carpets and locations go, this will have few parallels

Leaves move towards the river, the river moves towards the sea, 
Does it also want to meet the sky? 

Indivar's lyrics from Anokhi Raat come to the fore

ओह रे ताल मिले नदी के जल में

नदी मिले सागर में

सागर मिले कौन से जल में

कोई जाने ना


The branches dance with grace, happiness and abandon

They remind of Shailendra's classic from Madhumati

ये गोरी नदियों का चलना उछलकर

की जैसे अल्हड चले पि से मिल कर

More about the spot and the tree in another season
