Favorite Teacher Contest

I was in love at only seven 
Her name was Miss. Grayson
We made butter in mason gars 
But, I was the one asked to hand the crackers out

I really scared her one Halloween
I put a paper skeleton in her top drawer
She acted as her fright gave her a heart attack
Her acting was so good I told her after school

I was the one who scared her and I was sorry
She hugged me and with a smile said
Bobby, it’s fine 
But, one day she told the class she was to marry

My heart was broken she was my first teacher love

Ha, ha! Perfect, Bobby. My six-year old crush was Miss Dare---who ruined my life (LOL) when she came back as Mrs. Tewksberry in September... The nerve! LOL. Thanks, Gershon
