An Elegy On A Master Friend !

Oh!The Lord gave and He hath taken away,
My master, an untold era and a legend,
Ever he lives in our hearts,let us pray,
Eighty years of marathon came to an end.

For four decades a Teacher and HeadMaster,
Honoured State Awardee and Best Teacher,
He did win laurels,an architect, a builder,
A true visionary and a true Dreamer.

Service his motto for which he did live,
Many have drunk in this eternal brook,
A good sheep of the Good Shepherd believe,
He knows the folk from any corner and nook,

A preacher,an actor and an orator,
Let us Sing, Weep and let us Honour.

Footnote:
T.C.Arokiasamy,my veteran Elementary school teacher,master and friend.
