The Teacher

The Teacher

A Poem by Raj Sahu
"

This poem emphasizes on the features of a teacher.

"


An individual tries with numerous cries,
To make their future better.
But they make out the mockery,
With gibberish talk and clatter.

He is that patient wick who was never sick,
Of being burned for other's sake.
'The frugal time will always flit'
Such teachings and statements he always make.

With many sights, various lives he lights,
An amicable and pleasant character.
He, who always follow impartiality,
Uplift the child in every sector.

I really bow before such a creature.
He is none other than a teacher.

It is again a beautiful work by a beautiful author. A teacher is very important in an individual's life who leads him/her from dark to light. Really the very comparison you made between a teacher and a candle is worth commendable. The sacrifice of wax is same as the sacrifice of energy and time of a teacher. This is penned well. Thanks for sharing.

A teacher is the most crucial figure in anyone's life and it is he who shows us the righteous path for the future ahead.
Now, about your work, the internal rhymes in the poem made it more lyrical and the simile you set up between a teacher and a candle is something which I love most in this work. The orange colour of radiance is also much appropriate here. One should bow before each and every teacher, because one can teach you anything in any phase of your earthly life. Looking for more of your works.

I read this out loud , and it has nice flow to it. The rhymes are good too., infact it also has internal rhymes.. English teachers have influenced me a lot..especially during my adolescence....it's a noble profession.
