Eclipse of Glitters ............ An Ode To GCIOBs Gone Beyond

ECLIPSE OF GLITTERS
… an ode to Government College Old Boys gone beyond.

At noonday, eventide or sunset their sun set
They were products of GCI nurture and culture one and all
Molded at different times by different hands yet in one tradition all
In one vision to excel, to triumph … the mission.
They were truncated by time
They were dreams that cascaded down the precipice of cataracts
Swallowed in the vortex of fuming waters
Rushes of streams enveloped in larger streams
And candles rapaciously melted by hungry winds
Their light flickered, grew dimmer
The clock moaned tick-tock, tick-tock with an oppressive monotony
Their lingering breath ceased in peaceful submission
To the inevitable clutches of finality
Alas! They arrived at their own terminus in the coach of life and alighted one by one
“Good night” each one said in finality
With a hoot the train slugged on in slow motion
Bemused, we chorused, “Goodbye till our paths cross again”
The baton of integrity, honesty and truth
In all things and in all ways,
We’ll pass on.
