Between Teacher and Preacher

Do we still judge fine A drawing of line Between a preacher And a class teacher? Teachers now God’s Priests: Gospels clearing mists; A lot of Saint Paul Hatred for King Saul… Preachers Grammar Teach Good Spelling we breach; In Pulpits spell “Peach” And try voicing “Pitch” Our classroom teacher, The roadside preacher Do same advice Condemning same vice “Eating more than thrice “During fast some rice” But Vice is Sinner’s And we have kid Tina’s… Also their warning Sound like one mourning Preachers can face chalk For Teachers just talk; The real stuff long died, The left gap quite wide!

Good morning! You are right. It is often hard to tell a preacher and a teacher apart, since they do a lot of the same things.
