HAPPY teachers Day
Not every time do I say this,
Not every time I remind you this
Yet today as your day comes,
I am overwhelmed with feelings,
And perhaps words are limited, yet
Myriads thoughts in my mind come flooding—
Some come with songs—
Songs of appreciation,
Songs of felicitation
And songs of reminiscence.
Some comes with gratitude—
Gratitude for blessing
Gratitude for bestowing love
Gratitude for painting my dreams.
On every trail I leave behind,
There is your impression left,
And every step I take,
I imagine your presence.
My going doesn’t seem tough
Because your presence in life
Smooth all roughness I tread.
On this August Day,
I owe you all my love,
And I wish you Happy Teachers’ Day.
