My childhood days I sometimes remember <br />those classrooms, staff room and the principal’s chamber <br />It was so much fun to go to School daily <br />no tension in life but to play and study <br /> <br />In College came some responsibility <br />to make notes and do self study <br />No notes by teachers in college were given <br />lectures were compulsory at 75% minimum <br /> <br />A Kid feels being grown up is more important <br />passing out from school to become a college student. <br />As an adult priorities change even further <br />past fun and frolic become a back bencher <br /> <br />I remember the teachers who were dedicated <br />genuinely concerned about children’s studies <br />Extra classes they convened for weak students <br />to ensure that in exams they stood fair chances <br /> <br />They sometimes taught in the way of story telling <br />many chapters of history they were explaining <br />A physics teacher opened up his car even <br />to explain to us working of a four stroke engine <br /> <br />A biology teacher brought the whole class to our home <br />to show the sensitive plant in reality grown <br />A geography teacher took us on an excursion <br />different types of rocks to see in their habitation <br /> <br />It is said that one’s memories fade with time <br />recollecting incidents is sometimes not very fine <br />But the memories of school and college I attended <br />and the teachers who taught me will never get faded <br /> <br />I remember my teachers for all that they taught me <br />inculcated in me self confidence and the spirit of inquiry <br />Teachers’ day comes around on 5th September i.e. today <br />I pay homage to my teachers of school and college today <br /> <br />renukakkar 5.9.2011 <br />Copyright@2011<br /><br />renu kakkar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/teachers-day-3/
