We had made this video more than a year ago for the send-off of our seniors’ batch. It was recently posted on the Institute Facebook page. Here is the text of the poem I had written for those who wanted it (appears at the end of the video). The poem holds true even for my batch- I like to think it’s timeless:
What a journey this was, all the way through
We’ve had so much to see and do
So much we’ve done along this path
So much we’ve learnt from the very start
We’ve learnt the difference between boys and men
The value of a word, the strength of a pen
We’ve learnt to cherish life’s twists and bends
The blessings of a mentor, the importance of friends
The time to leave has come I fear
I end the odyssey I began here
And I recount all the days gone by
Of my life here at VJTI
My memories are what I’ll take along
And the bonds of friendship I’ve tempered strong
To my alma mater, I bid goodbye
And begin the journey to touch the sky!
