Teacher

She has been a Teacher since anyone can remember
a trainer of children starting in September through May
she is the Mentor the one who drills the skills
and shows them the way

Their course all run in different directions
her task is to lead them with the right preparations
She is a chalk talker a strict discipline walker
A dame with no shame in the tutelage that they will gain from the exercises they must practice on daily routine ABC's and 123's is the curriculum that they surrender to each and every day

It is she that they will remember when each one walks across the stage for it is her coaching and coaxing that brought them to graduation day


To all the teachers who are out there God Bless
Oh yes even the Guys you count also this just happened to be written for someone special from my high school days

This show of appreciation for your former teacher is very touching. One of my daughters is a new teacher, embarking on her career with so much love and dedication. I am going to show her your lovely poem. It will impress upon her even more, the important role she will be playing in her students' lives. Thank you!

Happiness to you always!
