Back To School

Time has now come for the teacher in me To embark upon a new school journey Thrilled to cuddle my twin fascination A vocation not an occupation Tempted by an undefined feeling Two great relish in my chest revealing My students golden rules again I’ll teach Limerick, Acrostic, figure of speech To PS my heart will sneak now and then For touching beauties a visit I’ll pen Wise souls from whom wealth I’ve become aware A grateful loving heart for what we share With artistic flair I’ll greet my school year Art of teaching I aspire and revere Poesy catching my heart and my soul Teaching, Light ever extending my whole.

Same situation here but the difference is that I am not so enthusiastic about the re opening of the school, believe me that nothing is more difficult than to wake up at 6 30 am in the morning, and it is so cold, where as in your bed, you are all warm and lovely, but what to do, I have to study. Anyway which subject do you teach, I am guessing literature, but can very well be wrong,

My great friend, so nice to find out that my guess of you being a teacher was correct! And a truly great teacher at that too! Now I know where and why that depth, beauty, keen intellect and inspiring poetic spirit and kindness comes from.. A fav,, a golden crown surely rests upon thy head and a blessing shower in thy heart!

A most lovely and expressive poem, Besma. These words are proof that you are an ideal teacher. I taught for many years and can relate to 'vocation not an occupation'. Wishing you all the best in your return to school (after the holidays, I presume). Teaching takes up a lot of your time, but hopefully we'll still have you stopping by:) Warm regards // paul

Indeed Paul, as a teacher yourself I'm sure that you do feel my words and my passion for teaching.. I'm always looking up to those who ascend the ladder of success and great achievement and do strive and challenge myself to reach my objectives.. yes, it is a consuming vocation! I'm doing my best to spare enough time for the beauties of PS. Grateful for your honourable visit and lovely feedback. My deepest regards Paul. Be blessed always.
