Teacher Poem

The Crucial Role Played By A Teacher

Hi, I am Aindrila. I am 16 years old. This is my first attempt at a poem. This poem is about the role played by a teacher. According to this poem, when an individual is uneducated, he is assailed by darkness, numbness, and gloom. He finds guile everywhere and no innocence. Through this poem I have tried to convey this message that education is the movement from darkness to light and a teacher is the one who illuminates our soul and eradicates the darkness.

Teacher, The Panacea

Published by Family Friend Poems May 2018 with permission of the Author.

Why is there darkness all around?
Why with numbness am I bound?
O gloom! How savage is your presence!
Why is there guile and no innocence?

My soul yearns for light.
Oh Lord! Let my soul burn bright.
Give unto me knowledge, wisdom, and a goal.
Light a flame, illuminate my soul.

"Divine Being!" said the Father.

"Education is the fire
that takes you higher.
Teacher is the being
who illuminates your being."
