BEST TEACHER
We do meet down the
streets sometimes,
But that sometime has
been a very long time.
Your face may have
got blurred in my mind,
But your principles and
teaching are deep inside…
I may have left those
lovely classes behind,
But those chalk
writings, still intact and never kept aside.
Sometime in my mind and
sometime in my friends,
I do find you when
running down the lane…
Your expertise and
erudition have always triumphed,
You always supported
me when I was dumped.
Everyone is a
diamond, you always said to believe,
It only needed polish
and some proper cuts indeed…
You did try that
thing on me,
And it worked like a
magic and drove me across the sea.
This small piece of writing
is a smallest tribute to you,
For all those love
and care, every time you do…
Not from me, but all
those lovely students that hail,
You are the best
teacher along whom we would like to sail…
Thanks for the
support and the love you gave
Your way of teaching and
the way of behave,
I am always gonna
remember whenever I reach,
You are always gonna
be there till my last breathe.
