Dr. APJ. Kalam

Indeed he was a man of wisdom,

Standing up for everyone’s freedom..

For the underpowered, he became a voice,

It was not a chance but his choice…

To eliminate the ignorance, he led a fight,

With all his power, he taught us right…

His aim was to follow this dream,

To make our nation work as a team…

With all his knowledge he enlightened the youth,

Teaching everyone the power of truth…

With his skills, and knowledge, oh! soo great,

He made India a nuclear state…

The man with the wings of fire,

Taking our nation higher and higher…

Teaching kids, he created a treasure,

Spreading knowledge is an absolute pleasure…

Yes, you are right, he is our Missile Man…

I feel so small, to write for a man this great,

Impossible for me to count all he had created…

A teacher, a scientist, a leader absolutely he was,

But a man who stood for the very right cause…

His contributions would never be forgotten, nor we all can thank you enough, all I can say is…..

Long live… Dr. APJ. Kalam…..
