Facing Tumultuous Moments As a Mentor
"But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works." *Psalm 73:28 of the King James Bible
Gripped with educational challenges
midst reigning virtual learning paradigm
teacher’s heart of mine strives to smite surges...
tumultuous shouts for "normalcy" chime.
From face-to-face classes to online shift
checking internet glitches that assail
my mentor’s faith confronts commitment rift:
“Will my reaching-out zest and zeal prevail?”
Vanquishing pandemic-stricken school blight
along lockdown and protocol measures
my life-builder spirit trusts* the Lord’s might
to impart truth --- reality assures.
Dear students, though usual routine we miss
let’s keep our partnership in constant bliss.
