A Teacher
A teacher you were
A student I was
Responsibility perhaps connecting point brought us together
A simple greetings and delivery of morning tea
Brings my attentions to more than a teacher you were
A Giver
You went beyond a teacher to help others
Not just students but families
Troubled students, poor students
You rescued them with another opportunity for them
Reminding your words
“Everyone deserves an opportunity and guidance”
And you gave me one too
While no one believed in me
An opportunity of lifetime that made who I am
Goddaughter & Godfather
This is not relation by blood
This is not relation by social custom
This is just like any friendship - God Sent
Mutual respect, care and faith
And your best gift to me (2000) …
A poem - Goddaughter
The day you became my Godfather
A Nurturer
Watching you giving…
Made me wonder why
And you told me
A joy one feels while nurturing
Gives utmost satisfaction in life
Your student’s success
Your pride and satisfaction
With no return expectations
Guiding Angel
From a Teacher to a Godfather
From a Giver to a Nurturer
From a Trust to a Faith
From a Care to a Respect
You had been my best Guiding Angel
Through my rough times
With no judgment
In my successes
With no expectations
I’ll cherish, respect and love you, Always
For you are, my Only and Best Godfather
Our Last Words
As you have asked, and I had told
Why cry for a soul set free
Your absence I surely agree
There are no regrets
There are no tears
For we, imperfect beings
Crafted journey of life
As treasured memories afterlife
With Lots of Love & Respect
Your Goddaugther
