“New Session”
By Ali Ashhar
Nascent life takes its own course,
a young mind anticipates surreptitious
syllabus;
afore the subsequent academic session
curiosity add new plots to
the novel chapters
he turns over the first page of chapter
as responsibility unleashes itself
through different units of the curriculum.
