Teachers are fire of the modern world.
They keep on shining for the learners to learn.
They brighten the potentials of these children
And selflessly shining for everyone’s future.
Teachers are fire, protecting their learners from coldness.
There are learners who are neglected and unloved.
Learners who are abandoned and orphaned,
And who crave for warmth and compassion.
Teachers are fire, protecting their learners from darkness .
They can easily give the learning needs of these children.
But teachers act beyond their teaching roles
They act as protectors of molested and abused angels.
Teachers are fire, selflessly shining in the dark
Their fire courageously faces the challenges of the world.
Even against strong wind and rain, their fire is inextinguishable.
Their fire provides light in the darkest night.
Teachers are fire, shining and warming not only the children in the school
But also to those people who haven’t set foot on this learning ground.
Children who are forced to work, old people who are struck by poverty-
They are also learners who are dearly served by these teachers.
Teachers are fire, selflessly serving not only the school
But the entire community where they belong.
Their fire is enough to affect a nation or the whole world
Because their legacy is etched in everyone’s heart.
