Enlightenment
Murry Priyanshu Rao 2009 (Rayagada, Odisha)
The superior personality who preached the way,
And carve the statue of future
That great people? Who are they?
Non other than our teachers!
The storehouse of extreme knowledge
Distributing among the generations
Taking us on a wonderland voyage
Of wisdom and exploration!
The wonderful preacher
Who walked on the nails of time!
The person is our marvellous teacher
Who help us every time…
The education lasting centuries
Teachers taught the way!
But faded will be the memory -
Underestimated will become they..
Lamps will burn low
Birds will stop the morning chime.
But teachers will always be great!
Until the stars shine!!
