Children Smiles and People Tears
Children's smiles and people's tears
Wake me up in the morning and roll me out of bed.
For I am a counselor for a grade school
A celebrity who drinks two cups of coffee and takes off
I have to be there by seven forty-five.
I am there by six thirty. Being there early gives me time to write.
I love sharpening the saw so to speak by playing with my talents.
Greeting children as they get off the buses energizes me.
I get enthusiastic and turn into a whirlwind as I meet their buses.
People's tears are what energizes me to come to school.
There might be one child or adult who needs me. I am ready.
I am revitalized and energized, just waiting.
