TODAY IS TEACHERS' DAY

HEARTY GREETINGS TO ALL TEACHERS, 
ERSTWHILE TEACHERS (NOW PENSIONERS) WHO SERVED IN ALL OUR 
LEARNING SCHOOLS OF EXCELLENCE. 



IN ONE OF THOSE SHINY DAYS,
AS WE SAT TO LISTEN TO OUR CHIEF GUEST OF THE DAY
(IF I REMEMBER RIGHT, IT WAS KUMAR DE )
THE TEACHERS' DAY

DE  STARTED WITH A THUNDER
"WHAT DO YOU DO HERE ?"

TUMBLED, JETTISONED, AND FLOORED
A FEW OF US MUMBLED:
"WE TEACH ......."

ED LOOKED UNCONVINCED. 
WAITED A FEW SECONDS MORE.

I SAID:
" WE LEARN "







I CANNOT BUT RECOLLECT THE DEVOTED SERVICES OF
ONE GREAT TEACHER.

IT WAS INDEED A PRIVILEGE FOR ME TO BE A CONTEMPORARY . 

MY SPECIAL HEARTY GREETINGS TO 

MADAM THANKOM MATHEW
