A Teachers Lesson Poem by Ernest Makuakua

A Teachers Lesson



Teacher you showed me a way to survive in life but you forgot to give me the correct direction,
you taught me how to choose a responsible beautiful girlfriend but forgot to tell me how to approach her, you showed me correct colours but forgot to tell me where to apply them

you gave me a pencil and a picture to draw yet forgot the chart or blank page, you gave me a licence but i just got confused do i actualy drive a motor bike ships air planes or cars in what car do i ride as there were more than enough to choose from, you gave me a house but you just forgot the right keys, all in all you just had to forget the right equipment so how do i work if you give me shorting material?

Now thats how life is structured. A teacher will never give you everything, you just have to do the rest on your own.

Never expect anything from anyone because expectations arise pain where not full filled

expectations arise pain where not fulfilled where not ful filled! , .

There are people to guide in life. A teacher is often a good guide. But he/she cannot provide everything needed in life! One has to put his own effort to chalk out the plan and path of one's life. Too much dependence on an external help can lead to disappointments! We are the sculptors of our own destiny to a great extent! As long as you know this, I am sure you will take the initiative yourself Ernest! Enjoyed reading this!
