Another Year Ahead Poem by Jaishree Nair
Another Year Ahead
On the threshold of another academic year;
Back to syllabus oriented classes and interactions-
To acknowledge, rectify and build on proficiencies assessed,
To enable the young ones to reach-
Their cherished dreams and destinations.
Inborn hidden talents to flush out;
Fragrance of knowledge
to perfume the campus
of butterflies in search of honey pure! !
Young eyes dreamy with visions of future
Its realisation - our mission prior!
The path strewn with thorns -perhaps
Paving the way clear to initiate a climb easy on the academic ladder
A teacher's job too demanding and sacrificing no doubt;
But the pleasure of achievement Immense-
The innocent faces like open books;
Expecting expectations to be satiated!
Drawing water from the ocean of knowledge;
Like clay eager to be moulded!
Our task strenuous-
to dive into the ocean deep
to surface with pearls precious....
But careful to be impartial
in illuminating their path towards glory.
A child's smile enough to light up our day
Troubles faded in their naughty pranks....
May God guide us to give them the best we can-
To support and lead them -
Into the enlightened world of wisdom! ! ! ! ! !
Reminded me of a captivating scene from the Malayalam movie Thaniyaavarthanam in which Mammootty in a teacher's role narrates the story of a kite which soars in the sky controlled by the kite flyer and stresses the importance of teachers in the lives of students. I can see the passion of a teacher burning in your poem, Jaishree. Thanks for sharing.
A teacher's work is of supreme importance. A teacher molds the character of youth seeking knowledge. A dedicated teacher is treasure of the nation.
As a teacher, I understand your feelings when standing on the threshold of a new academic year! There are expectations to be met, new targets to be laid and much fuel to be burned! Nevertheless, there is pleasure and contentment in all these! Wish you all the best!
Most honored job- schools of thought were named after the teachers-be a best teacher- an inspiring teacher indeed- A poor teacher reads, a good teacher demonstrates and a best teacher inspires -
A nice inspirational poem which talks about the state of mind of bothe teachers and the students.
