Analysis of Childhood
Murry Priyanshu Rao 2009 (Rayagada, Odisha)
Skimming through the dusty pages,
Lost paradise I have found!
Mere years seems like ages...
Mist of albums has shroud.
I remember those cherishing days,
When the smell of Earth lingered!
With hope and happiness in my glaze...
And mom's lullaby mingled.
I remember those slumbered scuffles,
And the laughter of mates!
Those lustrous birthday truffles...
And jovial classmates.
It's childhood's dusk but teenage's morn,
Those priceless moments, where had gone
