We joined hands and gathered for the occasion <br />The day to celebrate your memorable vocation, <br />Lighted lamps stood amidst the hungry crowd <br />To salute the grande dames with our hearts proud; <br />There art the pupils gathered in great magnitude, <br />Clad in armors to show their immense gratitude. <br />With sparkling flowers pinned to our hearts, <br />A journey of a life time, until the day we part; <br />She leaves a silent mark, down the memory lane, <br />A soaring ladder to success, our stepping stone; <br />The high pile of wisdom, our family, our pride <br />Surrounds us like the gentle caress of the tide; <br />The Mother and daughter, thick grass and trees <br />Together we stood hand in hand realizing a dream.<br /><br />Mary Binu<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-tribute-to-teachers/
