1. When and Why Did You Decide to Pursue This Dive At This Level? What was your inspiration and motivation?

I was in 9th standard when I decided to write a poem. I do not remember the exact reason, but yeah I wanted to develop a new hobby. I love to write down my feelings and that was the time when I thought I should try to be more creative about my writings. My motivation? My friends. I wrote my first poem on Friendship Day. They inspired me very much and they also appreciated my first poem. Getting a positive review from them motivates me more to write.

2. How Long Did It Take For You To Accomplish This Dive At This Level From The Day You Decided To Pursue It, And Why Did It Take That Long?

It took me 3 to 4 months to write my first poem as I was not able to find a suitable title. But on Friendship Day, I just wrote my first poem on that topic: Friends. Since friends are like a second family and they support you always. So on Friendship Day, my mind came up with the title and I became successful in writing my first poem.

3. What Was The Hardest Part About Achieving This Particular Dive Level?

Thinking up a catchy title was the hardest part. Also, at that time when I was about to write a poem for the first time, and sharing my poem with others–it was hard as I was very nervous and had much hesitation to show my poem. There were questions in my mind like: “What if someone is going to laugh at me?” Or, “What if someone bullies me?”

4. What Was The Easiest Part About Achieving This Particular Dive Level?

When I came up with the title, it was very easy to imagine and develop the rhymes, as words were waiting to be served on paper and I was successful in writing 8 lines of a poem.

5. What Is Your Advice For Someone Who Is Pursuing This Dive And Level?

My advice is that if someone wants to write a poem, first of all he/she should read through childrens’ rhymes. Childrens’ rhymes are very easy to learn, and you may understand the rhyming scheme. After that you can check more poems from renowned poets. When you are about to write the poem, you should try to research the title and collect some information if you are unaware of the title’s subject matter.

7. Tell Us A Story Of One Of Your Adventures While Pursuing This Dive (At This Level).

I was thinking to create a new hobby for myself and nothing was coming to my mind. I did not know what new hobby to start, or even how to start. I remembered that I used to write about my feelings and used to express them on a piece of paper, and I enjoyed that. So I realised that I should write a poem, but I was blank about the title. What to write and how? As we celebrate Friendship Day in India on the first Sunday of August, on that day my friends gave me some friendship bands and I had nothing to give them in return. It inspired me most to do something something special for my friends and so I wrote a poem. They all liked my poem very much and I thereby wrote my first poem. And that was just the beginning.

8. What Evidence Did You Submit to Prove You Met the Requirements for This Dive and Level?

My fellow Break Divers have confirmed my many poems that I’ve shared on the Break Diving community. And here are two of my poems. They are not my first, but among my first:

[Editor’s Note: the two poems below are not edited from their original versions for spelling or grammar.]

I saw the nature smiling
creating its dance and stiling (sliding on a slide)
Love of the Rain
Shower on me ,
I stood amazed and just see
I hear the stars singing
twinkling in the sky and sparkling
words of the Moon,
spreads very soon
The scene was only a boon
I notice the Earth
started thinking about dearth
One question make me sad
Why something happen Bad???
My only wish to God
Please make our thinking pure
We always sunshine
and
This Beautiful Terran Flatter Divine

We use to say , if I get this … My life will be set
So,
Life is fulfillment of of our desires , of our wants , of our needs
But suppose our that desire get accomplished
Again Why this Arguement come??
If I get that then my life will be set
Hsssshhhh WHAT IS LIFE THEN???
Sometimes I think
that life is like that Moody wife … (MOODY ;-? )
For whom her husband is always on struggling mode .. Like to keep her happy
But,But,But
if he lacks somewhere
Yeahhh dude
husband must ready to bear….
Again, What is life???
OK!!
Life is just to being that knife everyday
So that you can cut all your problems today
Always ready to face any situation and the becomes the spray of Gay (i.e happiness , joy )
