To, Dr. M. P. Gupta Director Jagran College of Arts, Science & Commerce Kanpur 2018-1Y9aKti Editorial “If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are dead, either write things worth reading or do things worth writing” - Benjamin Franklin. What is life? It isn't nearly long enough. Life is just a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. It is often believed that we are immortal beings- that our spirits live on after we die. But what about here on Earth? Memories fade and people sometimes seem to be forgotten as the generations pass. So, is there any way of being immortal on this earth? Can writing make us immortal? It's true that we can extend the shelf – life of our thoughts for decades, or even centuries, through books. The works of great writers of past are still read and loved and will be read forever. They survive the test of time. Today we can read the 2,700 year old thoughts of Homer and the 400 year old thoughts of Shakespeare. Shakespeare himself wrote about this concept in the last 2 lines of his sonnet 18. In it, he immortalizes his subject, just by writing the poem. His virtual saying “even though you'll eventually die, your memory will still live on through this poem: So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this poem, and this gives life to thee.” This issue of college magazine is dedicated to two legendary writers, poets and above all great humans, our former Prime Minister Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee and famous poet Shri Gopal Das Neeraj who will always remain alive in our hearts. Writing is powerful, and it can offer a small piece of immortality here on earth. So write as you live!

It's done, You and your pizza; DO NOT TAKE THE PIZZA OUT Is ready to get baked Let it burn, In the hot burning even of society. Let all your depression, anxiety, Bake it for all the years And horrifying past, You can survive and when, the cheese of grief Burn with the suicide pizza Melts and drips out Till there's nothing left Like the blood from your slit wrist Than mere ashes, Breathe And your suicide pizza Take deep breathe Looks too tempting to eat, And clean the oven from all the ashes. STOP DO NOT Now you,re ready to bake Even when the crust gets The cupcakes of happiness Rock hard and you can smell, it burning, Of kindness, of love Yes, get started, you cheerful cook!

When all at once I saw a crowed, A poet could not be but gay: A host of golden daffodils In such a jocund company! Beside the lake, beneath the tress, I gazed and gazed but little thought. Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. What wealth the slow to me had brought! Continuous as the stars that shine, For oft, when on my couch I lie, And twinkle on the milky way, In vacant or in pensive mood, They stretched in never-ending line. They flash upon that inward eye, Along the margin of a bay, which is the bliss of solitude, Ten thousand saw I at a glance, And then my heart with pleasure fills, Tossing their head in sprightly dance. And dances with the daffodils. 90 2018-1Y9aKti Antaragni 2K17 Krati Mishra B.B.A.-III Year Have you ever thought about going youth.....made it seem explicit....and that's somewhere you've always dreamt of and what if where the magic came from....it was ur most awaited dream comes true?..... people....people who were alive ...

This is my Sky Shreya Shukla B.A. - 3rd Year This morning changed it all, How'll they know the worth of sun, Thoughts rise abruptly to fall, Who never wondered what is night. No heights, till you crawl, Oracles don't make legends, I'll begin, now its my call. Legends are made to beat, Nature plays an individual role, Beat their own destiny, Though it doesn't help to get the goal, While fear comes on retreat. But just pierces into the coal, People say remain under the sun, And scratches diamond from its soul. I say why should I, Falling is meant for those, I'll fly till I am fatigued, Who have ever reached to height, No failure, this is my sky. 99 2018-1Y9aKti No Peace How the Music affect Awantika Tiwari your Brain!
