You gave me wonderful ideas for a poem bro hats off! ! ! ! ! Search my name Aryan nuwal on poem hunter once
Dinesh, I loved this poem and have voted it a ten. I don't usually like longer poems, but I enjoyed every line of this one. I feel like I now know all of these six teachers personally. I'm always interested in poems about teachers because I was a teacher for 40 years.
Truly said and rightly put, SIR. some teachers remain as most unforgettable by getting a place in our hearts forever because of their special and unique nature. God bless them amply.a tribute of a special kind.

All his teachers are etched deep in his memory, and on this day, he profusely expresses his sentiments of gratitude and indebtedness in flowing verse and heartfelt feelings! Dinesh, this has helped us remember our great teachers! Wish you and all other teachers on poem hunter a great Teacher's Day!
A beautiful tribute to your STAR teachers. My salute to you and other teachers in PH on this wonderful day! !
Thank you Shahzia for taking a lot of time to write such a long and sweet comment. I have tried to be as honest as possible in writing the account of the kind.As you are also a teacher I wish you too A HAPPY TEACHERS DAY. Thank you..
The great tribute that we can offer to our teachers is in the form of our feelings of gratitude, and this your Star Poem is the perfect example of this feeling...the poem is highly an enjoyable and readable experience, as each star offers an art of character delineation and the pen-portraits of those great teachers... the fab. lines from each Star: Star one: She taught us English and Geography and I still remember the big sun and small earth She drew on the black board With the smaller moon trapped between the two. Star two: He knew almost every word in Hindi, I bet But his Hindi was like Greek to Shakespeare. He was ever merciful to me and my Hindi And he stood by me when I read the stanzas Of the day`s poem with unease And corrected me in almost every line I read. and...the parenthetical add, of course! Star three: Then he would smile at my face, Oh what a smile it was! Star four: There was a handsome prince in blue or pink Who used to storm our brains with his great memory power, and, ref to lalitha ma'am is the additional color... Star five: He would be absent once in a month And we would look at the man in substitution With disinterest cast on our faces and minds alike. Star six: His reading into Emily Dickinson`s death poems Was beyond what one could expect from A Professor of his times or these times. When he taught the Principal would pass by our class room With a smile transcending his cloak of white fabric. and Poemhunter Stars: Kindly accept my greetings too...Happy Teachers' Day... This poem is a wonderful celebration of the great day, and the teachers who teach young children should not take their students light as they can be one who might compose such a wonder poem for their teachers one day, like you have done...thank you so much for writing this special poem.
A great poem, I enjoyed every bit!
