Tribute To My Great Teacher Poem by ANJANDEV ROY

Tribute to my great teacher
Who is no more in this world,
In this moment of solitude,
As I recall the great name,
I can not restrain my emotion.
He was my teacher, greatly efficient teacher,
My true companion of peace and pain, success and failure.
Whenever I performed well, he loved me in his bosom
And during the time of my distress and suffering,
He used to console me with his soothing words and inspiration.
Being optimistic, he always encouraged me and guided me to proper direction,
Even when he himself became pensive,
He tried to maintain his smiling face and joyous feeling intact.
Regrettably that dark day came,
When the great angel left us forever,
Concealing the lethal disease
Which he never revealed even to me.
I became truly alone in this vast world,
The great teacher is no more this day,
But his words and advices still ring in my mind with great effect.
