Tis Thanks - Giving Time

With just two years for Diamond jubilee, We Stanleyans meet once again this year; Eight years had passed since Golden jubilee, Our batch-mates join with kith and kin and dear! We thank God first for His immense kindness, He blessed our lives in much strange ways so far; We thank Him for His enormous fondness for us, all doctors without any bar! Our life on earth was great enough, we think; We had our days of woes and quarrels, mirth; Life gave us experiences fit to ink; We thank our parents for this useful birth! We thank our teachers who moulded our clay to take on challenges in life always; We thank our friends for love we couldn’t repay, and neighbours who helped us to spend our days! Our life on earth was worth living life-time! We thank the stars for giving us the chance; Our labour paid off well and made us prime; We still can work and pray and sing and dance! Our hearts go out to those unfortunate, Who could not see the light of world, unborn! We thank our patients who with pleasure wait to seek our consultation from each morn! Their gladness knew no bounds when we could heal; Our hearts were very sad when we could not; Nevertheless, it was life’s game and deal; We can’t describe the satisfaction got! We thank the Maker who healed all the sick; Our roles were small when lives returned, though gone; We were just candle-wax; God was lit-wick! We had to melt to light the world, though dawn! We thank our students who became our peers; We thank our nation for giving us fame; We thank our college for making us seers; We thank all souls who helped attain our aim! We thank the day for affording this meet; Our joy is great to speak to batch-mates old; With evergreen memories and love, we greet! Our achievements were far better than gold! We are not scared of death and have no fear as life was fine, and eyes have become dim! We know our day to leave this earth is near, for Maker calls us mortals to meet Him! Fondly dedicated by Dr. A.
