EUREKA
LOCKDOWN BEGINS
You realize ,all you ever wanted,

Was right in front of you, I stepped out of my school bus

And you could cross your limits,
And I heard an unusual fuss.
To make it come true.
No one was on the road,
All your life,
In her balcony stood my neighbour,
You’ve hoped to find it.
Back from abroad.
Hoped to find what makes you smile,

But you just couldn’t see through the mist. I stood amazed at the door of my
house,
Some find it in their hobbies,
I heard something, was it a mouse?
Others unknowingly discover what it is.
I went inside and I saw my mum,
But everyone’s not that lucky,
What they want the most, they might miss. She said, “Come here little girl.

It depends on what you’ll give up, It may give you a shock ,

…Give up, acquiring that. as we will be in a lock

For it’s the one thing without which you can’t live, because the lockdown has begun!

And the one thing you want to have.
No one can go out, no one can come in.
You can give up your comfort,
So, say Hello to double chores and get
You may have to stay away from your family. used to these four walls!”

No matter how much it may hurt,

You’d do anything to find your destiny.
Saanvi Sachdeva
But when you know what it is, VI A

The struggle feels so small.

You’d do everything to achieve this,

When you have it, it feels like you have it all.
