WHO AM I! (POEM)

Who Am I! A Poem         

Introduction

Understanding our true identity is crucial for everyone. While we are all aware that we are human beings, this poem focuses on our specific roles in the world. Often, we become confused about which particular role we should play. 

Additionally, we need to remind ourselves of these roles when we become entangled in worldly affairs. In this poem, I seek to remind myself of my own identity. Let us now read and discover how I have undertaken this self-reminder.

WHO AM I! 

I am a soul with a heart that beats,
Feelings, emotions, joys so sweet;
My brain thinks, perceives, and speaks,
Laughs and cries in life's little feats.

I wonder, Who Am I?

Wandering, growing as years unfold,
Facing the sun, feeling the cold;
Strength, passion, bold and bright,
Yet tears reveal life's hidden plight.

I wonder, Who Am I?

Learning, experimenting, living anew,
Embracing pain, moving through;
Missing carefree days of yore,
Life’s rush leaves nothing as before.

I wonder, Who Am I?

Burdens of sorrow weigh me down,
But memories lift, friends come around;
In shadows dark and times alone,
I find myself in a desert unknown.

I wonder, Who Am I?

I am a being, a well-being true,
A teacher guiding others through.

Dedicated to all teachers, the noblest of all professions in the universe.

Summary of the Poem


In this poem, I depict myself both as a teacher and an ordinary individual. In my view, a teacher is someone who possesses not only a strong academic foundation, teaching experience, but also profound and practical life experiences.

Furthermore, it is essential for a successful teacher to have first-hand experience with the challenging phases of life that they are expected to teach their students. Thus, a teacher cannot truly succeed without having endured the difficulties described in this poem.

Social Media Literacy & Modes of Education in 21st Century (B.Ed Honours) Course Content Introduction The term social media refers to the digital interaction among different social groups.

As a result of it, such teachers rely on outdated traditional methods of teaching. On the other hand, many students believe that the purpose of social media use is just for entertainment and informal interaction with digital friend...
