Beyond The Black Board

Teaching is a noble profession But, given less regard on golden opportunities I saw their plight of sacrifices One example, teacher in remote places Where servicing education to less fortunate ones I saw teachers start hiking on a Sunday morning And arrive at the place at evening They have to go to the ordeal of cliff hanging bridge Flowing river and rocky rough road and too many stops in between They are stay-in teacher for the whole week or even more Only few teacher survive the ordeal Many quit and gone abroad for greener pasture Some change places and practice in private school Those who survive the ordeal remain skeptical But because they love their profession and the children They remain true and love their profession by heart I wonder what the government can do to alleviate the situation I wonder where our taxes go, where the resources went I wait God to intervene my government and raise good leaders To address many social issues that concern people and its progress.
