Lighthouse Of A Student - Teacher Poem by Gajanan Mishra

1

A teacher is not only a teacher
But a father, a mother, a guide
All in one for a student
Here on this conflicting world.

The teacher - the lighthouse
Of a student,
The truth and the storehouse of
Love and affection.

The teacher is the creator,
The one who maintains the present
And the future,
The teacher, also act as a destroyer
If time so needs.

I find no substitute of the teacher.

Teacher and student,
One teacher and one student
Can do anything,
Can change the course of
Nature and history.

Teacher knows
What to read how to write
With own experiences.
Ideas and beliefs
All come from the teacher.

Teacher tries to leave
An impression of love
And truth and carefully
Planned way leads students
To touch a new age.

With great care
The teacher spend his time
Learning nature and
The students follow
The sun hoping all the best.
