Teacher…

Whenever I hear the word ‘Teacher’,

I just don’t know what to say.

These words surface, when

I am walking alone, in a serene lane.

The words which you used, to explain difficult concepts

The words which we used to address you by, apart from your name

Even if I clearly remember those days

Whenever I hear the word ‘Teacher’

I still don’t know what to say.

Some of us clearly bonded with you

Some of us clearly hated you

But all of us eventually started to love you

Even if I know that,

Whenever I hear the word ‘Teacher’

I still don’t know what to say.

So, if I just sum up all my days,

I just find only one thing in my head

As happy tears roll down my eyes, I say

‘Thank You, Thank You for Everything’.

That’s it, and I have nothing more to say.
