Analysis of Tribute to My Teachers



Your knowledge rained down to me,
like the blessing of the earth,
helped the latent seed
to take new birth.

Your soothing words pleasured me,
like the beams of the moon,
Which comforts plaintive mood.
Summoned my lost confidence very soon.

You took care of me
lest I would nip in the bud
and helped to bloom
by your light of knowledge to a tendered bud.

Your wisdom is like infinite
and I am among the many
who is blinking,
only to spread your glory.
