My Memoar

Dedy Respianto 2010
At the pretty night, I sat in back of my home. I looked glow stars spraying in the sky as if it didn’t wish to close to me. It’s so arrogant, high and untouchable though I very wanted to be beside them in my heart but it’s impossible although there’s statement ‘Nothing is impossible’. Frankly, I should be brave saying that’s hard being come true.
When I was child, I always did it. The whole nights, I spent in brown study under dark sky. I always dreamt being a part of them. Because of huge wish, I looked for knowing the stars why it could stand stoutly. I looked for it in my school’s library, but it’s not easy because my school’s books were not complete at the time. So, I just asked to my teacher, he taught me about social science, it’s called ‘IPS’’. In the lesson subject’s learnt about star and sky, I really liked it because she gave me a book about star, it’s the first book that I liked reading. But, I wasn’t satisfied. I always wanted to know a thing more although there’s no someone could make it be real.
One day, my school would hold ‘farewell party’. My teacher ordered me to make a poem for taking part in the party. I was exhausted but I felt confused because I had never made a poem before. But, it’s impossible to say ‘No’ to my teacher as a nice boy. I directly said ‘yes’, I would try it Ms. Ana.
After I backed from the school, I always thought about Ms. Ana’s saying, when I was having lunch, taking a bath, having dinner. But I didn’t still get idea for a poem. “Oh, my God. Please give me an incredible idea,“ I said without sound. A few time after having dinner, as usual the condition that I always wanted, it’s silent night with many stars in the sky, by a big freedom, I could see them satisfactorily without someone could hinder it.
Suddenly, when I looked the stars in the sky, I got idea for my poem. I thought that star could be my topic in the poem which I wanted to make. Then, I tried to write strongly and with hard. Almost five hours, I spent for it ‘till latest night came, I had been tired and sleepy, but I knew that you wanted to know my poem, didn’t you? But, sorry the day had been a deepest night, I could not show my poem to you. You could wait until farewell party came………..
A farewell party had been pushed aside in a real day. After time by time had been passed, my turn came. I walked to the stage nervously, but I shouldn’t be hesitant. By full sureness, I held my poem and began to read expressively.
This is my simple poem that I had created at the night and you might read it suitable with my promise.
You’re My Teacher
By Dedy Respianto
My teacher…………………….
Without tired , you teach me
No grueling , you educate me
No fatigue limit, you train me

Though……Sometimes,
I made you angry
I made you bored
I made you discomfort

But……………………
No tear, seen from eyes
No tiredness, described from your face
No doubt, shined from your attitude
No anger, said from your mouth

Oh, my teacher……
You’re like my star that I always see in my nights alone
You’re like sky that I always wonder in my whole days
You’re like shining that I always wish in my dreams
You’re like moon that I always gaze in my fantasy

My teacher…………………….
I won’t forget your advice as long as my life
I will always love and miss you forever
A big love will always pour to you

Frankly, the poem had been translated into English. A long time ago, it’s written in Indonesian. So if it’s not natural, I’m sorry because at the age, I didn’t know rule in making poem, I didn’t care about anything, I just wrote what existed in my mind. ‘’Till the time I was writing this story, I have been writing more than ten poems. But, I haven’t been brave to publish them for public.
One day, I wish I could be one of poet in this world.
