My Teachers.
Mother's womb is
full of darkness.
We remain there
for nine months.
Birth enables us
to see the light of Cosmos,
the leaves see,
the flowers see,
the sky sees,
the animals see
the same sunlight
as we see.
Still there is a veil of darkness,
the garb of ignorance on us.
This veil is taken off
by proper education
imparted by noble institutions.
Excellent teachers
skilled in communication
taught us alphabets to jargons,
numbers and their interactions,
shared our burden,
inhaled some chalk power,
struggled with dusters
on black boards,
listened, with patience,
all our queries,
offered logical trust worthy
solutions,
took care, tried hard,
to build, in us,
a strong foundation,
make us complete humans,
hence worthy of all admiration.
Gift of food is a relief
for some time,
gift of knowledge
is the solution for life time,
our teachers do this
for no selfish gain,
they take our success
as their credit,
our failure is their debit.
I earned my bread and butter,
also for my parents and children,
progress successfully
through many
turbulence and turmoils of life,
all due to their magnanimous
blessings and contribution.
My head bows down,
for ever, before all my teachers,
my heart is, for ever,
full of humility
and gratitude to them.
Pray them, my God,
remember their faces
and advice in
my mental realm.

I left comments and stars at Agony And Ecstasy Coexist. I don't find a place on the poem's page to 'click' to send you a message. Hmm?
I am compelled to delete your comments after reading them in order to read all your comments.Perhaps poemhunter has reduced the space for comments.
'Thanks for the comment on 'I'm Sorry..'. I'm always glad to be able to help someone in a worthwhile pursuit. I like it when people offer help to me! : )
Thank you for your impressive poems, they are constantly in my TOP 5 STARS, jewels to read, so very pity that our time is limited (our job etc) , but for your responses on my poems I have constantly great appreciations, Dr. Dash. I like your honesty most.
Vice is planned in mind, executed by limbs and masked by lies of tongue.
Darkness is within us, but we go to the temples to light oil lamps.
Our thoughts in mind are reflected in words and actions to make either upliftment or down fall.
A pure heart neither fears nor scares any one.
Our mistakes may be forgotten, but the lessons out of those should always be remembered.
Anger comes alone, but takes away many good qualities from us.
Limited desires can make One live happily, living happily is very easy and simple, but to exhibit your happiness to others is expensive and complicated.
Breathing and believing once gone never return.
Problems of life do not come to an end; we have to live with them by searching solutions and achieve final goal.
Patience and self-confidence can assist one to turn one's dream into reality.
The poet detects jewels from sand which no one even can see.
