A Tribute To My Readers

A writer is incomplete without the readers, so this is a short tribute to you all....

My dear readers,
I'm grateful to you all,
for being here...

Each time i write a poem,
i earnestly wait,
wait for your reviews,
because, they tell me the depth,
to which my poems are true..!

I never thought,
that I'd write,
but there's a story
a story, behind it,
full of insight,
that makes one smile.
which I'd like
to share with y'all
tonight...

When I was a kid
of twelfth grade,
it was the day, i think,
third or fourth of May,
I remember the day,
I remember the date,
it was the Moral Science
class on 5th of May,
My teacher told us
to write something,
on the topic, `When I'll bid Adieu`
While others wrote
one or two lines,
I was there
with four lines..!
she checked everyone's writing,
by her keen mind,
and intense understanding..
And when she came to me,
and read those four lines,
the situation, i feel was truly divine!

I  know not
what she saw in
those lines,
she came to me,
and urged me,
to complete that poem
By May nine...
the next day, i did it,
and later,
it got published in our
first school magazine,
for the first time..!

Everyone who read,
appreciated it a lot,
and encouraged me
to continue this
great work of mine,
In the coming time.

but all that happened,
was because of Her
my lovely teacher
that time,
who fell in love
with those four lines!

yes, my dear readers,
I'd really love to tell,
that,
if i write well today,
its entire credit goes to her.!!

Then i came here,
and wrote more poems,
and the result i think,
y'all have in front of you!


My dear readers,
i really cherish your presence,
in reading and reviewing my writings,
and i cordially thank you, and wish,
that, in future, you will be even
more supporting.


if i am a poem, you are my words.!
if i am a book, you are the pages.!
So, i request you, to always be
with me,
in this race of chaste,
as a book is empty, without pages,
and a poem, useless, without
words and phrases..!!

Saumya - I believe this is one of those from the heart...moments...seems you're happy to be acknowledge among your peers for your work and interest in writing...and thank them in one big way with a verse...I do not mind read all you material...but why so many at one time...I understand if there is a specific one that needs attention...I will do this time...but let's be real...so I can have time for others also...

That is a very sweet tribute to your teacher and your readers. It is a special thing when a teacher inspires a student.

[Saumya]

Teachers can be the pivot between feeling wonderful about ourselves or terrible. In many ways I think we want to please our school teachers more than our parents, especially if we are from a dysfunctional family. I felt this way many years growing up.

Curiously Saumya, you never wrote above the 4-lines you gave to your teacher to merit such praise, however ? :)

[Saumya]

THANK YOU for the review, friend:)
i have my poem,:when i'll bid adieu" written here on wc among one of my writings, you can read it entirely:)
regards,
saumya
