Paradigm Scrawl

BLATANT PRIDE


Unaware of the world
Sat the dumb child
Whilst others forged ahead
This one sat and cried
“But the others are “smart”
that’s what the teachers told
Do they have a heart?
Or has it gone mean and cold?
Cold, frozen with ignorance
‘coz they failed to see
the giant that lay inside …
This boy was going to be
Stronger than the others would ever be
For this “dumb” child, had a talent within
Uncovered and modestly it lay within
Maybe one couldn’t see it in the report card
Maybe you wouldn’t call him “dumb” again
‘Coz when his dulcet voice echoed
it soared and danced in your ears
and rang in your mind
This voice took him to great fame
Glory, money and much more
And the academicians who once branded him “dumb”
Now applauded and toasted him
And said,

“He was my student!”

Good.

Perfect Punctuations made it more meaningful ( I felt first poem MIGHT have given nice dimensions wiht lil more punctuations )

I still maintain that, ur FIRST POEM is still my fav

thanks !!!!!!!!!!!

Loved those lines. A sharp whip on academics and academics oriented education we have.

but it's true isn't it ???
