The Teacher Of Teacher Poem by Akhtar Jawad
The Teacher Of Teacher
The child is ahead of me,
he is jogging faster than me.
But why he is turning back and looking at me?
I love his half eyes on me.
Is like me he is also recollecting the past
when running faster than him
I had been ahead of him,
and I used to turn back my half eyes
looking at the child behind.
I am now waiting when the child learns
to be loving and kind
to the weaker.
I am sure soon he will be jogging like waves
besides decelerating his speed
and the grandfather will overtake his grandchild.
The teacher is confident this jogging will end in a caress.
He is my student bless him my God, bless!
Bless us with a golden moment
when the student becomes a teacher of his teacher!
I am now waiting when the child learns to be loving and kind to the weaker...............great expression! A poem of great value and substance! (10)
The older generation teach the new. When walking ahead they keep their eyes on their children so that they learn proper values.The child grows, walks ahead when old one lags behind.But the child too look for wisdom from his parent or grand parents.This process of teaching and learning is done with much love and affection and so a healthy social system is built.

Very true, as we grow older we pass on our legacy to the next generation and we see what we taught them they recheck it and validates. They learn from us and then they teach us, a lesson to learn, Thoughtful poem Janab..10/10

In learning and knowledge a child may be the superior. He becomes father of the father or teacher of the teacher. Dear Jawadji, you have astutely and incisively inscribed the poem taking this theme. It is a great tribute to a grandson from a loving grandfather.

There is a saying... 'Child is the father of man'! So in course of time the child will become the father's teacher! A beautiful tribute to a sweet grandchild by a loving grand father! The child's looking behind shows his concern for the grand father!
