He Is There Poem by Srinidhi S U

He was there as a guiding star,
As a wonderful teacher, teaching the
Souls of Present,goals of Future.

He was there bringing out ideas,
Nurturing young minds,
Awakening the youths of the nation.

He was there serving the nation,
Guarding the people,
Strengthening the Democracy.

He was there as a worshiper of science,
A sculptor of Technology,
Being the "Missile Man of India ",

He was there binding the people,
Capturing children's minds,
Framing a vision to the great nation.

He was there till yesterday,
Teaching the students, feeding them
Knowledge when he breathe his last breath.

He will be there for years to come,
Teaching us at our hearts,
Guiding us throughout, our actions.

He is there as a teacher, a professor, a scientist,
"People's President", a perfect personality,
He Will be there in me till my last breath.

I have not and will never lose Him
nor his ideals as it has made me-
I'm not going to lose myself! !
