She Has Taught Me All...

I Still Remember That Day, It Was The First Day At School,
I Cried And Cried All The Way…But My Mother Was Not To Be Fooled
She Left Me Outside My Class…I Stood All Alone,
There Were So Many Faces Around…But All Unknown

Then Someone Held My Hand And Lead Me To My Chair
“Don’t Worry My Child…I’ll Take Your Care”
Years Went By, But She Stuck By Her Word
Not Even A Day Goes By When Her Advice Has Gone Unheard

When Future Became Too Unclear…She’s Held The Torch For Me,
And When I Started Going Astray, My Mistakes She Made Me See
History, Math Or Science, Her Knowledge Has No End.
She Would Make Each Topic Fun…She Had Started A New Trend!!

Her Pat Made Me Glad…But Her Glares Scared Me Bad
I’ve Troubled Her With Endless Pranks…But Not Once Had Been Mad
On Picnics She Would Become One Of Us…It Would Be Hard To Tell Us Apart,
She Has Endless Zeal And Energy…And A Very Big Heart!!

She Holds Nothing Back…Imparts All Knowledge She Has Got
But Has Never Asked For Anything In Return…Guess She Has Never Even Thought!!

Now Is The Time To Thank Her For All That She Has Done,
Today I’ve Got Only Praises For Her…Complaints I Have None

I Thank You Dear Teacher, For Your Selfless Love And Care
Thank You For Being My Guiding Star…Thank You For Being There

I Have No More Words To Express My Thoughts
Just One More Thing I Say
Today We May Be Miles Apart
But In My Heart You Will Forever Stay!!!
