Neetu Singh February, 2023DEDICATED To MY BELOVED BROTHER MR. RABINDRA KR SINGH You were wild, happy and free, And had almost, nothing to worry. Suddenly one day, helt broke loose. And life for you, grew cruel like a noose. When our father left you at eighteen, ‘And you had almost nothing to lean. Then like a rock, you stood firm and strong, Left your dreams, lived for us alone. Life taught you harder, books taugist you less. Your beloved guitar, became forever speechless. Life was tough, but you laughed away your paint. And taught us to be tough, however hard sorrow rains. Today when I think, of that agonizing time, ‘he pain that you bore, sends shivers down my spine. Brother like you deserves a million salutes, Today Lam what I am, just because of you.CHAPTER-O1 CHAPTER-02 CHAPTER-03 CHAPTER-04 CHAPTER-05, CHAPTER-06 CHAPTER-O7 CHAPTER-08 CHAPTER-09 CHAPTER-10 CHAPTER-11 CHAPTER-12 CHAPTER-13 CHAPTER-14 CHAPTER-15 CHAPTER-16 CHAPTER-17 CHAPTER-18 CHAPTER-19 aa Visual Vocab Vocabularies From Reot Words from Root ‘Logy’ Words from Root ‘Graphy' Words from Root 'Philia’ Words from Root ‘Phobia’ Words from Root ‘Mania’ Words from Root 'Cracy & Archy’ Words from Root 'Cide’ Words from Root ‘Culture’ Words from Root ‘Latry’ Words from Root ‘Theo’ One Word Substitution 1.
