The Relationship Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

The student got admission in school
The first day passed peacefully
Second day he made friendship
To the next sitting students preferred.

Slowly days passed and a day came
When a teacher came to class
Informed them as their class teacher
And told he is strict in classes

Time must be the concern of students
Time table he insists must follow
Never permits an excuse in copy writing
The handwriting must be improved by all.

Unfortunate, the student was a little lazy
Copy book forgot to write and came empty
The class teacher verifies the copy books
Missed the student's copy book he found.

Fondly called his name in loud
May be for an advise he suspected
But he asked to bring a polished stick
From outside the compound in such speed.

Hesitating to oblige the teacher
He politely told to pardon his lapse
But stern was the teacher and asked to abide
His command is thoughtful never to excuse.

Getting the stick in hand and shown them all
Asked the student to show his hand
Fearing such a heavy blow any time
He showed his hand with tears in eyes.

The teacher in such haste showed the stick
But getting down without touching the hand
Told him never repeat the lapse
Not for me for your own sake and life goals.

Years passed the teacher is no more
Still he remembers his valuable advise
Never say an excuse in life events
Oblige the commands of elders in good intentions.
Best of teachers are always kindly to students.
