B-School Assignment

A New Dawn

Oh listen! all the kings of this land
Let’s give our dreams a single chance

Yes we can change our destiny for the better
With roads, hospitals, electricity and water

Schools for our children to learn and achieve
The future beckons for a change we can believe

Let us break the chains of misery and poverty
And protect this light of hope and prosperity

The cuckoo on the mango tree, singing to call
Come! Let’s welcome the new dawn, one and all

P.S. : This was for my assignment :)

Backdrop:- A village has seen riots and there have been serious fatalities on the news of an industry being set up. So we act as consultants to sort out the situation and give them a ray of hope.

Before long ...





Then they just left their sand castle on the beach
And set off towards the sea, hands within reach
.
.
.

Before long, the sand beneath will thaw and relent
And draw them close, amidst stirred warm current

Before long, the waves will gush to those rocks
And reach out to a faraway island for an idle talk

Before long, a gentle wind will tangle those curls
And entwine their breaths with subdued myrrh!!

Before long, the full moon will set foot on water
And walk over to them, without trace of murmur

Before long, a heart will lose itself to another
And a story will begin, to be retold forever!!!
