I want to give respect to all teachers not only here in country but all over the world and honor them with this poem I wrote several hours ago.
On Teacher's Day
by Gil Camporazo
Today marks a great
milestone on the teacher's life
as a great mentor.
Great efforts she did
to teach children learned truly
as a conferenced man.
Sometimes she forgets
herself and her family
to do her duty.
Scoffs and scorns
gained she from nincompoops' nod
out her blood, sweats, tears.
Even life's taken
from her without due recourse,
teaching no greater call.
Sans her no other
professionals molded well
to rule world of job.
In this, great respect
we salute and honor you
Happy Teacher's Day.

Salute all the teachers. It's a beautiful poem. Teachers shape human and so have a great responsibility. We celebrate teachers day on 5th September in our country.

@arunima25 That's true. They have a series of day-to-day activities except Saturday and Sunday.
