Old School

By Shaikh Mohammed Yasin

And the days answered when Noddy sang

When Henry’s door bell Oswald rang

When Tom and Jerry ruled our times

And Goblins silently hit their crimes

When Pingo with his penguins played

When Tyson threw his strong bayblade

And all those Pokemons Ash would call

When we learned Humpty Dumpty’s great fall

When Jack and Jill had to climb a hill

And Johny had some sugar to fill

Bunking the schools after the lunch in noons

To not miss on our Looney Toons

Sponge Bob;s mischief below the ocean’s depth

And Justice League had our goosebumps kept

And how can we leave behind Scooby Doo

Who solved things swiftly yet being afraid too

There was always time for some Dexter’s science

And when sailor Popeye sang his lines

With a “toot toot” that his smoke pipe blew

All our fears from our minds took a leave

Now they seem like a dream, all those days

When a million smiles we found in our million ways

Where have they dissolved, our visions and our stage

Is it that worthy now, to be just a machine in a
