Bachpan

Poetess Subhadra Kumari Chauhan revisits her Bachpan. Her claim to fame is the fiery poem - Jhansi Ki Rani, now part of every Hindi curriculum. She took active part in Indian Freeedom Movement, and that showed a great deal in her writings. Unfortunately she died at a very young age in a motor accident, which perhaps deprived us from more of her possible works.

This lovely poem will be a trip down the memory lane for all the mothers around. Why only mothers, I think every grown up will ahve feeling of deja vu, reading this. Enjoy.
