Creative canvas

At ABWA, we ensure that our students learn the right skills and values; we assure that they achieve the best for themselves and finally we encourage our students to be inspired. Kevin Gandhi of Grade VII has penned down his inspiring thoughts in verse form. We delve into this ‘inspired’ expression….

Today

Today is the day, when one’s dream comes true,
While another’s nightmare.

Today is the day, when death goes on a rampage,
While life struggles vigorously to keep up.

Today is the day, when fantasies come alive,
While reality reluctantly gives in.

Today is the day, when we are free,
While others still fight for us.

Today is the day, when we overcome fear,
While it still toys with the minds of others.

Today is the day, when slaves are freed,
While their owners clean their feet.


Sunrise

Our souls are cleaned,
Our blackened thoughts cleared,
Our nightmares turned into fragmented memories,
As God’s bright gift is bestowed upon us.

Haunting ghosts and shadows retreat to looming shadows,
A warm light floods even the coldest hearts,
A quickening of the spirit joins you,
As the sun rises…


Shadows of Death

Death will haunt you
You will try to resist
Resistance won’t help
Help won’t arrive in time
Time will betray you
You will suffer
Suffer an inglorious death
Death goes on a rampage
Rampage of murder
Murder will kill you
You are the first victim
Victim of carnage
Carnage that will ruin the world

Worldwide terror
Terror will rise into the night
And then…

Then you realise you are a shadow.
