 Teachers

They are messengers of God
holy gift from the lord
A ray of hope
For every wounded soul
A helping hand
When we can't stand
They give us light
So we can shine bright;
In darkened days
In abandoned ways
They teach us not to curse our fate
But to fight with it
They give us wings
Wings of words
So we can fly
And reach our destiny
So we can feel ecstasy
And seal dismay

They teach us the difference between
water and thirst
thorns and pain
comfort and confrontation
destiny and Fate
love -and hate

Indeed it's the divine wisdom of a teacher
that has brought me here
For it's the power of words endowed by her
The words of encouragement declared by him
It's in front of her that I bow
Thanking the sincerity of teachers
Sent
So nobody might drown
in a sea of lies
When there is
An ocean of knowledge.
