Do you give up
And tremble under the force?
Or stumble like a weary horse—
then fall?
Do you rise again?
Like the sunrise?
Do you push through?
Like roots through clay
Do you rise through the clouds?
Like an aircraft in a storm?
Do you shift like a flickering flame?
Then slowly fade?
And sit under the shade?
Maybe you just stop,
And close your eyes
Or do you keep running,
pushing to the finish line?
Hello! I’m Neil Fernandes, a Year 11 student studying in Auckland, New Zealand (yes it is a country). I love writing poetry and find it a way to express real-world issues in just a few stanzas. I find myself in my room most of the time, either watching Netflix or writing essays, poems or stories. On the odd chance I am not in my room, you can find me near the airport lookout spots, freezing and capturing the beauty of flight in photographs. You can also see my love for aviation in my work. My goal on this website fascinate and kindle in you the love for poetry and display a little of my writing along the way.

My name is Anil Aron Victor D’souza, born and brought up in Halealve, Kundapur (the village where Eddie uncle‘s tales are based) and now residing in Dubai with my family.
I used to be a voracious reader, but off late I spend most of time watching TV, specially Mighty Mike, as my three old doesn’t allow me to watch anything else. But reading is a habit close to my heart and someday I want to have a huge library at home. Well, the work towards this dream of mine has already begun. Before, I took to writing articles, I tried my hand at cartoon sketching and wasn’t very good at it. Not that I am good at writing, but I enjoy writing more than sketching.
Starting a blog of my own, was a project underway for a long time. After many failures and hacks, here I am with this website.
I hope you like it.
When I fall ?First place try not to fall.When then try at earliest to get up and walk.Second say thank God nothing is broken and simply walk as if nothing happend.Sure sometimes something ,somewhere gets hurt.That also belongs to daily life .Its like a life.Always it cant be same ,get sick ,be happy ,get hurt with someones talk ,,not to forget we too hurt others .How nice if it could be always happy or jolly ,but we get bored after sometimes.We simply waste our precious time in this world simply sleeping ,or do nothing .Have a mission in your life ,to be helpful to others and towards your family .Not to hurt others and your life will be success at last.When you are on death bed you can be happy and say God ,thank you for giving me the chance to serve you and place me in your hands.
