WHAT IF .......

In my school teachers were really cool,

The principal's office was on a branch of a tree,

When kids got A grade ,parents really did worry.

In the morning assembly, the children did a somersault,

The Hindi teachers praised the children when they were at fault.

In a seven period time table , six were for games and one for reading fable,

The librarian sat on a horse back on a stinky stable.

Canteen was where we took our exams,

To soothe our nerves we were served cutlets with bitter jam.

Children were punished if they walked in a line,

Teachers had to wear mini skirts or they were charged with a fine.

The principal spent her time swinging in the jungle gym,

To reach the underwater reception area we had to know how to swim.

For Annual functions hundred percent parent participation was a must,

Children enjoying the show was a norm, which was so just.

The Chemistry lab was in the cow shed,

There, one could see yellow litmus change to red .

The Bhaiyas took rounds in the corridors,

The gardener took Math classes and taught us, 6+6 is always 4.

In the play ground every morning the Didis did a drill,

It was mandatory for them to wear lacy frocks with a pink frill.

The board in front of the principal's room said " Children, please do not stop screaming"

I woke up with a start ,"Oh boy was I dreaming?"
