Enter Poem or Quote (Required)Required Was it a sheer accident that I became a poet? Poetry, I didn’t pursue, rather it cropped up As a late-night guest, quite unexpected. A teacher’s career, I have been bent upon And prefer to be known more as a teacher than a poet. In my eyes, teachers are a venerable sort, Happy that I could belong to that ‘special’ lot, Instilling in young ones - newer insights gleaned, Enriching their lives - with atoms of knowledge pooled, Brightening their paths - with millions of lanterns lit, Rowing them away - from the perilous shoals of life, And leading them to be anchored on safer shores! A teacher sure stands taller above, Every other mortal who serves!! Numerous are the guise a teacher has to put on, And cleverer the tricks she has to play, To tackle the wards in her all-out care, And launch them out into a world to fare. I have played all at once myriad roles, More of a mentor and not just a tutor, A physician who heals, a nurse who tends, A parent who cares or a pal who shares, A patron who supports or a lawyer who argues, A scholar who learns and a master who trains. As Christ taught his disciples - with parables many, As Socrates instructed the youth - through endless queries, As Sullivan led Keller - to the new dawn of light, As Aesop enlightened kids - with countless tales, I strove to be a TEACHER. An erudite soul with a mission! A sculptor who sees an angel, veiled within a rock! An architect building an edifice to last a lifetime! A warrior uncompromising in war, On Ignorance – the most ignoble foe! I don’t know where I presently stand, Nor do I know how my students would rate me, Though often floundered or failed to act, In the manner I ever so longed to do, I would rather be a TEACHER all my life, A ‘guru’ out and out, from hilt to heel. And I would wear that mantle with pride!
