“Poetry is simply the most beautiful, impressive, and widely effective mode of saying things.”
Matthew Arnold
An Inter-house Poetry Recitation Competition was organized on 22nd January, 2019 at G.D Goenka World School.
Beauty is the realm of poetry; the students of CLS segments enthusiastically participated in the competition as they got an opportunity to exhibit their talent and confidence. The competition inspired the young poets to come forward and recite on stage. The students came up with different poems on the theme “Patriotism” and recited them with great fondness and zeal for the country. They enjoyed the perfection of expression, thoughts, emotions, rhythm and music of words.
The participants from all the respective four houses – Cedrus, Nysaa, Cycus and Sorbus left no stone unturned to win for their house. Students were judged on the parameters like confidence, voice modulation, memorization and overall presentation.
The young poets enthralled the audience with their articulation and memory skills while reciting poems. It was a splendid opportunity for them to gain confidence through stage exposure. Everyone was delighted after seeing their pleasing performances.
The judges appreciated and applauded the performances of the participants and the feeling of patriotism filled the air with affection and respect for the motherland.
