Morning Tea







Upon the kettle’s gentle, tuned embrace, 
A dance begins where water meets the flame; 
The soothing sound, a melody of grace, 
Invites the day to shed its weary claim. 

With measured leaves, both fragrant and divine, 
A ritual unfolds as my senses wake; 
Each step precise, as clock’s hands intertwine, 
In steam’s warm breath, the morning’s peace I take. 

The warmth cascades through fingers, soft yet bold, 
As swirling steam ascends to greet the light; 
In every sip, a tale of joy retold, 
A fleeting moment, turning pure delight. 

Thus, tea prepares my heart for what may be, 
A brew of hope, sweet solace, setting free.

Chasing Dreams

Chasing Dreams






In halls of learning, dreams take flight, 
With books in hand, we chase the light. 
The path is steep; the nights are long, 
But in our hearts, we find the song. 

Through stacks of notes and cups of brew, 
We toil and strive, we push on through. 
Each challenge faced and tear that falls, 
Builds strength inside; our spirit calls. 

The pressure mounts like waves of sea, 
Yet every struggle shapes what will be. 
With sleepless nights and minds ablaze, 
We carve our futures, ignite our days. 

Though roads may twist and turn around, 
Each hard step brings the dreams unbound. 
For every hour spent in toil, 
Sows knowledge deep in humble soil. 

When doubts arise, hold your head high, 
Let passion soar; let worries fly. 
For in the grind, where lessons thrive, 
Lies the heart of those who strive. 

So hold your dreams like stars above, 
With courage, grit, and endless love. 
When you arise to face the fight, 
The fruits of labor will shine bright. 

In the end, it’s more than scores or grades, 
It’s wisdom gained and strength that stays. 
Trust the journey, embrace the grind, 
For success awaits the open mind. 

With each small win, take a moment there, 
Reflect on struggles, their lessons, the care. 
In student life, where hard work blends, 
A brighter future is what it sends.

हराउँछन् साथी, यहाँँ मुस्कानहरु हराउँछन्
था’छैन कुन दिन मुस्कुराउनेहरु हराउँछन् ।
कपटी यो दुनियाँं सब स्वार्थी छन्, साथी
आँशु बगाउँछन् आफ्नैले अनि आगो लगाउँछन्
हराउँछन् साथी, यहाँँ मुस्कानहरु हराउँछन्
था’छैन कुन दिन मुस्कुराउनेहरु हराउँछन् ।।

घाउ कति छ कति लुकाईराखेको मुटुभित्र
सम्झनाले हरपल हरक्षण चहराउछ्न्
ऊ बाँचिरहेछ, पीडा बोकेर मनभरी
अफसोच, सबले मुस्कान मन पराउँछन्
हराउँछन् साथी, यहाँँ मुस्कानहरु हराउँछन्
था’छैन कुन दिन मुस्कुराउनेहरु हराउँछन् ।।

शान्ति र चयन सबै लुटिएपछि बजारमा
मान्छे बेचिदो रै’छ अनि त हजारमा
भन्छन्, "शहरमा छ गरेकै छ सबै 'सेट'"
आँफू ब्यस्त छु यहाँ भर्नलाई यो खाली पेट
हराउँछन् साथी, यहाँँ मुस्कानहरु हराउँछन्
था’छैन कुन दिन मुस्कुराउनेहरु हराउँछन् ।।

काट्छन् कुरा कमाइ लुकाई शहरमा बस्या भनि
हरेक पल भोग्या म छु कैले आउँला मृत्यु पनि
मुस्कान देख्छन्, तस्विर हेर्छन् भन्छन् सबै पुगेकै छ
घाँटी रेटि इच्क्षाहरुको जिउँदो मुढो घिस्रेकै छ
हराउँछन् साथी, यहाँँ मुस्कानहरु हराउँछन्
था’छैन कुन दिन मुस्कुराउनेहरु हराउँछन् ।।
