Rock And Roll! Jack And Soul! Our Teacher's Magic Show In The Hall! Poem by Harindhar Reddy

Rock And Roll! Jack And Soul! Our Teacher's Magic Show In The Hall!

Rating: 4.8


A Lion roared in the known University of simplicity,
Wizard of words and their deeds in the name of scholar profound,
A Hero of pep talks with his knowledge on topics of multiplicity...
A speaker of personality was found in our ground!
Great Scott! In this age of teachers come and go...
Thou shared thy Knowledge night and day in a famed way, so
Go, go and go, Amigo! Bow and bow, we bow!

Thou planted the seeds of knowledge, sprinkled with love and creams,
Harbored and nurtured those tiny shoots without any ego...
Helped us to grow and blossom to produce tomorrow’s dreams.
Thou taught you and me with elixir of wisdom a year ago
With Midas touch, you made us happy as Larry...
Beating, shaping, night and day in May...
Shaping, beating, dust and clay in his way!

Oh teacher, Oh teacher! Radiance spread as you led;
We stood close to your side as happiness wed!
You lit the lamp of creativity of flood in our class...
With a special gift for learning and your appeal mass,
180 things not tied to the subject taught, you, a genius versatile!
You won our tender hearts with a smile and in undeniable style.
Cherry – merry! Merry – cherry! Are you Japanese flowering cherry!

“I am a CAT to rats! I am a TIGER to deers!
I am life to good; I am death to bad and cheers!
Yet, I am a friend to you and everyone” sang thou in the sun;
“Run to the east! Run to the west! Run, run and run,
Go to North! Go to south! Go, and go with desire to know...
Wherever you go, go forward! ” Says sir with electric glow;
Glow-glow, flow-flow; flow and glow and a magic show!

Keeping professionalism at bay, leaving teaching etiquette in clay;
Thou made learning an enthralling game of cricket and tennis ball!
I am in class taking namby-pamby anatomy lecture in the dry farm,
Oh! I am so fatigued I can't even stare at the schoolmarm!
Then I always had fun in your class, I just want you to know...
How the time has flown? Like a variety show!
Baseball, handball, football, your class is a sports hall!

It's the end of the year;
I am feeling very sad and stock still;
As it's time to say goodbye, tears fill...
“I how to teach the pigeons to coo in English,
I know how to make benches to dance in English,
I can instruct board to chant idioms” said thou;
Mania! Mania! English mania, remembered we, wow!

Oh! Students, oh! students, Are you born & bred with intelligence
You're friendly and awesome; fair and handsome with common sense
You say, you do, you smile with perfect timing in the sun...
And if I got to grade you, from me you'd get A1, yet it’s not fun!
And I want you to know how I loved to be your teacher...
How fast the months did go! Oh, my dear!
Come to visit me when I am a tired creature!

I can't believe the end came soon like Tsunami
I hate to leave you and go to mysterious Island what a satire!
Remember all the fun we had only you and me...
Year ends; we must be apart as Elvis has left the building
Tears welled as I say good bye! Without willing
Always know you're in my heart
With tears in my eyes we depart...
