Nature, Nurture, and a Tribute in Verse: Angel Mary Joins To My Beloved Teacher



Kasaragod’s lyrical voice lends her heart to the classroom’s unsung heroes.

Writers’ Kalam Literary Bulletin is delighted to welcome Angel Mary, Assistant Professor of English and soulful poet from Kasaragod, Kerala, to the pages of our heartfelt anthology To My Beloved Teacher. Her poetic tribute, titled “A Path of Light: My Beloved Parents,” is a luminous offering of love, gratitude, and remembrance — capturing how the teachings of parents often become the first and most enduring lessons we carry into the world.

In her unique and deeply moving piece, Angel Mary expands the idea of mentorship to include the quiet, steadfast guidance of parents — the original teachers in every child’s life. With her characteristic blend of sensitivity and insight, she paints a portrait of learning not just in classrooms but in kitchens, gardens, and silent sacrifices.

Rooted in Nature, Raised by Hope
Angel Mary’s creative voice is deeply connected to the natural world. Her poems often observe the world with a reverent stillness — the slow bloom of a flower, the patient rhythm of the rains, the resilient growth of life after loss. These themes of renewal and quiet strength are beautifully reflected in “A Path of Light,” where love, discipline, and hope converge through the lens of parental guidance.

Her tribute reminds us that teachers come in many forms — and that the path to wisdom often begins at home, illuminated by the soft, steady light of our first role models.
