This is something I composed for my beloved class teacher Mr. Lakshman Pelandage when he retired from Ananda College. This poem was selected to be given to him in a plaque offered to him representing the whole school.
Beloved Teacher
Nobody was to light it tolerably
We were lost knowing no way
Sun rose above the horizon calmly
Upon us against the darkness
Examples, similes, metaphors
Added colour to your teachings
You were the pedagogue among all
For everyone to understand and feel
Endurance, dedication, generosity
With a great,honoured personality
Were to be seen in you truly
One mission, one vision, one goal
Did you have, it’s evident do we feel
You expect one thing from us
To be good, educated citizens
Promise, do we to you and express
To bring you what you deserve, with this
