Year Book

The memories of college life are etched to our minds. But just in case, we need something to kindle all those memories, we have our wonderful yearbook. The yearbook team has done a fabulous job with the design and contents. But still, I have one personal reservation with the book. The poem that I wrote especially for the yearbook has been missed out Couple of my other poems have been published, but still I would have preferred having this particular poem in the year book. This poem is an honest attempt at reproducing most of our IIMI experiences. I am sorry for all my non-IIMI readers who will not be able to associate with the stanzas.

i-life

As our IIMI chapter is closing pretty fast

Its time to recollect the past

The past 2 years

That set our life into high gears

Let’s step back and gaze

Remnants from the day we entered this maze

When, except our hostel, most was empty space

Think about the changes we brought into this place

The initial shock was with the sex ratio imbalance

More followed with certain *********'s brilliance

Early morning routine was a rumpus

Only to fly to the old campus

We adored the clouds flock

That added beauty to the acad block

Enjoyed organizing IRIS and Utsaha

Laughed at "Indore student" and "bahut hua"

We've had memories of multiple layers.

The Diwali, Holi and Janmashtami prayers

TT, baddy and volley players

The birthday kickers,

And the marketing research surveyors

We wouldn’t forget the hostel blocks

Artistic Armageddon, Beautiful Bee-block

Charismatic chaos in lost world

And the decorous dementors

Before us, IIMI was in close observation

The new kid was looked with anticipation

We have now changed this insti's perception

With prizes in external competition

Cracking summers adding extra projection

The first IIM business magazine creation

All, leading to the IIM Indore's glorification

Through this poem of rhyme

Am recollecting our life's prime

Thoughts that are sublime

Memories for a life time

Best wishes from Ramanujam
