Childhood memories that hold close to the heart forever.
The onset of winters
Reminds of the cozy bed of childhood
Nothing can render the warmth like that
It showered dreams sweet to behold
It gave shelter to the heart worn out
Sometimes elated at times dejected
Filled with all the hues
The slumber in its lap
Was the most melodious
The lyrics of sleep were mesmerising
That always seemed abiding
Never to let me feel alone
And it really did never
Let me feel alone
It was always there to hold me
To make a bold me
To let me grow but always there
To treat me like a child
That never wants to grow
When in the vicinity of my home sweet home of childhood
Where nothing seems to get too old
Where nothing seems to become obsolete
Where everything seems priceless
Where everything seems indispensable
Part of my youth
As much as it was of my childhood
How can one come with a proposition
Of handing it over to someone
Unfamiliar with perceptions of this heart
What all it holds
What all it showers
The reminiscences of the times gone
The days of childhood
More precious than any coffer

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
