On Teacher’s Day

 

To,

All my teachers who keep on appearing in every phase of my life 

 

Why should we restrict the definition of a teacher to our school teachers and college lecturers? I believe every person who comes into your life and leaves a footprint for you to complete your journey is a teacher.

On Teacher’s Day

To every healer, who healed me,

To every taskmaster, who peeled me,

To every hater, who killed a part 

within me,

and

To every admirer who praised me.

 

To every person;

Who gave me hope,

Who taught me with tragedy to cope,

Who left me broke,

And to those

Who extended my scope.

 

To every person;

Who taught me to rebel,

Who taught me to, ‘in people’s heart dwell’.

To the person who taught me to love,

And to the one

Who taught me to ‘love’ in a corner shove. 

 

To the person, who left in my heart a hole,

To the people who for me poured out their Soul,

To the people, who taught me the law of life,

And

To them as well who taught me to live the life of law.

 

So on this auspicious day

I take the privilege of thanking all those angels in the form of teachers who passed by me and left their footprints on my Heart for time Immemorial.

                                                                                                     - Prajval Albuquerque

HAPPY TEACHERS DAY TO ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN A PART OF MY JOURNEY.
