There Is A Kind Damsel

There Is A Kind Damsel

( Poet: Sahil Sharifdin Bhat)

This world is a long night

And I guess I am asleep.

My life is a weird dream

That makes me often weep.

In the prime of spring,

My garden is looking brown.

The seeds I have sown

Are lifeless there down.

The pillars of my labour

One by one , fall apart.

I pray to all gods

But they answer me not.

All my fellow-birds

Move to the greener land

And I am all alone

Here on the burning sand.

Friends no longer miss me

And angry are my relatives.

My merits are invisible.

I have vibrant negatives.

There is a kind damsel

And she holds me dear.

Kissing my forehead, she says,

'My darling, don't despair'.

She gives me books to read

She walks by my side.

In this crowded world

She is my loving guide.

Love gives you a fresh hope

And puts you back on feet.

Love heals aged wounds.

Love makes the world sweet.

The remaining 95% must be covered through self-study at home or with the assistance of coaching centers. Unfortunately, not all students can afford the expenses of coaching centers. To address this gap, I have made a humble effort to guide students on what to study in order to succeed in national and state-level exams in English Literature.

Unlike other academic fields, it transcends mere study and ...
