Teacher’s Day Poems 2025
Poem 1
A Poem for a Teacher
My teacher, my guide,
You showed me the light,
You taught me to read,
And to do what is right.
With patience and grace,
You filled me with knowledge,
And gave me the strength,
To be who I am.
Happy Teachers' Day!
Poem 2
With patience you guided, with knowledge you led,
A path full of learning, in my heart and my head.
You saw my potential, my fear, and my doubt,
And with a kind whisper, you brought my best self out.
For all that you taught me, in lessons and in life,
My grateful heart thanks you, my mentor, my light.
You plant the small seeds of wisdom and thought,
In the gardens of minds that you have so well taught.
You nurture the questions and help them to grow,
Into trees of great knowledge that stand in the glow.
Your work is a canvas, a masterpiece so grand,
The greatest of artists in this very land.
Poem 3
My teacher, my friend, you stood by my side,
Through struggles and stumbles, with nowhere to hide.
You gave me a hand when I felt I would fall,
And answered my questions, both great and so small.
Your kindness, your humour, your lessons so true,
I wish a wonderful Teachers' Day just for you.
Poem 4
The world is a book, and you hold the key,
To open its chapters and help me to see.
From numbers and letters to history and art,
You ignited a fire and gave me a start.
My hero, my mentor, my star shining bright,
You filled my world with your knowledge and light.
