Teachers

Teaching fervently in the class
You are a guide and model for exams to pass
As you train children to click on your lesson
Hence to copy your devotion

They download from the web of your server
All that they find in their favour
All in a spirit of love from what you teach
Inspiring them in hopes and dreams to reach.

In all kindness you draw their attention
And sow the seed of motivation
And delete all their negative feelings
So to save in their files only positive dealings.

You edit their work in all fairness
To insert tools to do their best
Your efficency icons on the screen
Are for them to select what they need.

Most impressive is the ambience
They perform with confidence
Mesmerised by your perseverence
Thanks for your competence.

You condition their growing years
And gain many supporters
In making smarter so many teenagers
And producing useful workers
Their carreer so well engineered
Till you grow grey hair and  beard
So you are special on TEACHERS' DAY
For your goodness we all pray

Beejadhur: My son is superintendent of a 16,000 student district and he would love to have all his teachers be like you've described here. Many I'm sure are but I fear some may not be. Thank you for giving us a "picture" of the best. Keep them coming. oldbuck

Thank you, dear Old Buck. I have taught since 1979, and I still do more voluntarily to students from poor families. I appreciate what your son is doing. I love teaching. I wish my poem can change those who are less devoted.

Reading this I remember my days with my teachers almost a friend in class...unfortunately many now are no longer on that line since business buzz in their head. Alas! Well penned! Sunita
