Our Guides

To those who guide with wisdom’s light,
Through every challenge, wrong, and right.
You shape our minds, our hearts, our way,
We honor you on this Teacher’s Day.

With patience deep and knowledge vast,
You help us learn, from first to last.
In every lesson, big or small,
You catch us when we fear the fall.

With humorous classes, that makes us hustle,                                                            To maintain pin drop silence, scaring us to not move a muscle.                           Ever so strict, to your rules shall we abide,                                                              For there is none greater, than “Our hope – Our Guides”.

We call you our mentor, our friend, our guide,
Like tall ladders, you help us climb with pride.
To the wonderous heights, you lift us in life,
You stand selflessly, saying, "It's your spotlight”.

Such humility is seldom seen,
We bow in gratitude, our hearts serene.
With deep respect, honor and grace,
Acknowledging you in this sacred place.
We salute each one with heartfelt ease,
Honoring our guides on bended knees.

We thank you, for teaching us the best, for many long years,
Helping us in all things, making us overcome our fears.                                      
Forever and always, you shall be in our hearts so dear,                                         No matter how fast, the future draws near.
