My Teacher, My Guide
I know you are in Heaven,
My teacher shining bright,
Yet, I can not help but to hurt,
For your remembrance today.
I hear you, in my heart,
Telling me it's all ok,
Yet my tears flow,
For a special teacher like you,
I did not want to go.
I know there comes a time,
we all must say goodbye.
Yet, I thought it would be,
My graduation day.
You smiling, and proud of me.


I know in my heart, you are safe and sound.
Yet as I look around the school,
I no longer see, your eyes shining bright.
I know what you wanted out of life,
Be a teacher and make a difference,
in our young lives.
You will be missed,
Yet, you will not be forgotten,
By friends, family and students.


I am proud to say,
you were my teacher,
and will forever be my guide.
The lessons you taught,
will be cherished forever,
Throughout our lives.
I know someday, we shall meet again,
Miss. Chadwick, the teacher leading small angels,
and holding their hands.


And until we meet again,
know I'll always remember,
and look up to the teacher,
who always did understand.
You are forever engraved, upon hearts of many.
A work of art, here on earth, you were
I Know God chose you,
Your Heart, and smile ever so true.
Someday many of us will follow,
To see you, once again.
I will be waiting. We will do the best we can.
Look around and see,
what you have shared, with us left here on earth.
While Heaven, has become your turf.
Holding the hands of the Angels,
sharing lessons of love and life.

Kellie,
Nice rewrite.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
