It's a Christmas Carol

In a cold and rainy day
I perceive the winds that blow away
Raindrops plummet on the ground
With its strong and deafening sound
 
Though the heaven isn’t clear
But laughter is what I hear
Little children feel so much excitement
For it would be their awaited moment
 
But not all are ready for their presentation
What I can see are movements and actions
“Oh yes teacher! This is the day,
But can we have a final practice, is it okay?”
 
I nod my head with a smile
So I’ve wait for a while
Jolly moves and sweet voices
With so much enthusiasm on their faces
 
I call everybody’s attention
So we could start the presentation
But some kids are not yet around
They aren’t yet in the school bound
 
“Where are they?” I ask
“Ma’am, they are still preparing props”
Kids respond with a sad heart
Then I inform them that we are about to start
 
Seconds and minutes of waiting
But yet, no one is coming
Outside their eyes are staring
And minds are too busy thinking
 
I decide to start the caroling
And so the first group starts singing
But then they are still hoping
That their colleagues are coming
 
At the end of the occurrence they arrive
With nervousness that is so hard to hide
Teary-eye they came
But no one to blame
 
 
They’re thinking that their efforts are useless
For it seems that there are no chances
They feel too hopeless
And lose their self confidence
 
I do my part as teacher
Words of encouragement for them to be better
“It’s okay my dear”
“It’s better late than never”
 
It’s a Christmas carol
They’re bringing attractive decors
Excellent grades are what they want to savor
Eager to end it with flying colors
 
I bestow them another chance
For they are in good hands
I want them to succeed and be happy
Their success is what I want to see
