Mugdha Khedkar - First Day At School

I remember,
My first day at school.
Eyes filled with tears,
Mind filled with fears.
Hand held tight with my father's,
Reluctant to leave.
All new faces,
Staring at me,
Welcoming me,
Into this strange new world,
Which I had never guessed,
Would be a world of happiness.

And now,
When I look into the past,
I smile to myself thinking,
About how my journey had begun.
A journey of knowledge and happiness,
Which showed me the path to success.
