Kindergarten Re-Visited :)
Down memory lane....
'Here we go marching on with arms stretched resting on de shoulders of the one before.Innocent giggles and same-pinch(es) exchanged... "Hey u are wearing new dress ya..(a beaming smile) yes my thatha got for me... hehhee.. I have Gems we will eat in interval ok-va?.. hehee
In a distance we hear the shhh...shhh...time for assembly children..no talking...which means no more holding hands... we silently fall into the -stand in fours pattern--and look straight for further instruction...Soft music fills de air teachers come forward to do the actions...and then we start singing
"God's love is so wonderful(2)
[ hmm 'wonderful' was index finger and the thumb together..the other fingers spread out!! Phew! for a KG kid that needed xtra effort]
Oh! wonderful love finger on chin Oh!
So high u can't get over it
[this was fun got to jump as high as we cud..so it was jump,fall, get up before ma'am spots u ;) ]
So deep u can't get under it bend low...pull de legs of ur neighbour
So wide u can't get around it
[both the arms spread out one full circle...merry go-round it goes on and on.till we loose balance]
Oh! wonderful love” again finger on chin
Assembly is almost over sister comes forward to say a few words..and then the morning wish and disperse... with the waltz playing at the background we march back to class with great fervour kicking and lifting the legs way upto the chin.. with mud all over de face we hurriedly pull out de water bottles for a hasty sip.. '
hmm …. happy thoughts... Those were the days,my friends life used to be awesome!! Nothing mattered but fun and frolic...
These little choruses taught years ago is still fresh in the mind.And everytime I want to thank the Lord for something or the other somehow this chorus is on my lips...
And today after years am singing the same song in a school campus very similar to our KG assembly ground and my heart invariably longs for the company of the girl who used to be my neighbour..sweet Miss.Charlotte singing.. Ms.Saldhana's strict look. Sr.Lucy and her loving smile.... the banyan tree above. the colorful appearance of the stage.. My oh my.. St.Francis Convent nursery..
Childhood memories...nothing compares..
