KP
Some people collect shells; Others pottery,
Assembling weirdos, is Bala's hobby!
And who appears on top of the list
Why KP ofcourse! 'Spretty obvious
This young lady is a crazy explorer
And is most at home among flora and fauna
Heres a secret that I know is true
KP isn't just KP, She's superman too!
The photonucleic effect is how superman recharges
While KP revitalizes in dark green forests!
So every time you're back is turned
Know that KP is somewhere, saving the world!
She's the protector of all, from barbets to kites
Saplings and bees and dear old lakeside
And not just to Nature does KP lend her energy
But to humans too! Albeit grudgingly! :P
She's patience itself to tales of woe
And helps you laugh when you're feeling low
She claims to be clumsy and butterfingery
But just check out her paper quilling to know quite differently!
She doesn't care what she looks like
She doesn't care what you think
She essays sarcastic comebacks before you can blink
And thats just part of the reason why we love you KP
You're so much fun. We love you infi!
Tangy
Tangy is a penguin
And there my poem's endin'
For it is a well known fact
That penguins simply love their math
Not as much as Spanish omelettes
Or late night work at the Credit Suisse Office
But enough to leave their home in India
To go abroad to study at Columbia
Penguins also have a wealth of anecdotes
(They have a funny diet comprising mainly of artichokes!)
Like the time they tried to dispose their shoes, missed the train
Walked miles and miles back, over unfamiliar terrain
Or the day we saw the 'President is Coming' at Prithvi
And didn't recognize their school after talking about it blythely
But the best part about penguins, is they make amazing friends
Tangy, I'll miss you! To the very, very end!
Bala
When it comes to birds and bees//
Funny fruits and milipedes//
Pluck your sample, write a description//
Send them to bala for identification
Now, Bala in the city is a scary proposition//
For she randomly stops at busy intersections//
Oblivious of traffic, people and of being knocked down dead//
She'll reach up to pluck the flower above her head
And if it's too high up for her to reach
She'll call upon you to step into the breach!
But she'll come to your room when you're feeling down
And talk to you endlessly to get you back up
She'll sit through all your talks and presentations
Fix your laptop and works better than meditation
So all in all to cut a tale short
I'll miss you Bala
SO VERY MUCH
Mankar
One happy night, on our way from Parel
In a half empty train dabba, we found a friend
It all started with her DSLR camera
Coupled with dimples and Marathi drama!
It escalated quickly during fun SAC sessions
All the nautankiness was so so entertainin'!
She showed her support for KP by coming for Nature Club events
But dirt and earthworms conquered enthusiasm in the end! :D
While Untidy rooms and shoes unarranged
Were calculated to drive her deranged
But the pleasant chatter, the dinners and treats
Cemented a friendship that was ours 'for keeps'
In particular birthday confidences, the coming out session
Of a closet poetess was a lovely connection
Adding on to this she's a very hard worker
Inspirational and ambitious, she's a top class researcher
So keep shining Shruti
We're all there for you
This friendship is forever and I miss you!
Panja
Would you think of staying in touch
With a friend who forgot your birthday?
Not much!
But what if you were the nicest person on the planet?
Inspite of being on a carbs free diet?
Well you'd still write emails and not be bitchy
And be there for your friend, who you dubbed -pitchy!
Which would be a good thing because pitchy loves you madly
The Westin hotel days and the drunken karaoke
The times we hung out, you, me and Scrooge
The ribald jokes that were oh so rude!
The long discussions on gender and sexuality
The breaking of barriers and the acceptance of disparity
Here's to the last year and to rindiness in general
Heres to friendship. May it be perennial
