Do you remember?
When your mom informed you of your school
When friends talked about it
When you watched the big boys going there
While you had been dreaming of it
Do you remember?
Do you remember?
Your dad brought your first set of books
You saw it as a big surprise
You were just impatient to write on them
Do you remember?
Do you remember?
When your bag was presented to you
When no other friend has of that type
But you thought it was out of fashion
Do you remember?
When you were gonna be unique
Do you remember?
When your Mom bathed you
When she fits you on the white shirt
A black short and a black shoe
When your face was with full of white powder
Do you remember?
Do you remember?
When your G.Ma guide you there
Where you have been wondering about
When you line up with them
When you sang with your little voice
Anxious about what’s gonna be next
Anxious about what’s gonna be next
Do you remember?
Do you remember?
When you wonder about the boy next
When you wonder about the man with mustache
When you wonder why you were taken there to
Do you remember?
So now you should remember!
Wherever you are or whatever you are
Those memories are the tiny beginning of your life
They have their share in your life
Do you remember? Yeah you should!

I remember my school bag, it was not even new, but the old one from my sister and it was really out of fashion:) Thank you for recalling those good days.:)) Great great poem!
