By the Grace of God......................Toufel

1 JNU, New Delhi

Ten whole months he took to be born
And eyes wide open when he was born

The biggest pram we bought for him
But that too was very much small for him

An early riser, morning walks he took
For which his old grandpa eagerly took

Spent his childhood with horses and guards
Romped on the grass in the campus which they guard

Centre for Russian Studies* was its name
Where he played, with siblings, many a game

Then to Mahanadi** we had to shift
The view from there was a perfect gift

Getting lost in a maze of green
In the hostel only married couples to be seen

For kindergarden he went to KV***
Well dressed he was all could see

2 Bluebells School,  New Delhi

Then to Bluebells for further study
Scholar he was and not a penny paid we

Darling of the Principal, pet of the Teachers
For competitions he went with Sir's

After middle he went to 'Doon
To Grace Academy, but not to Doon

3 Grace Academy, Dehradun

There too he excelled in all that he did
Soon a scholar due to the hard work he did

Then back to Delhi for higher secondary
There too studies was not one bit secondary

4 St. Stephen's College,  New Delhi

Then marched to Stephens's full of pride
Soon he became Stephen's pride

Then to Shirala as a manager**** he went
Where I too went to get him a home on rent

5 UPSC, New Delhi
