My Dear Trainee Teachers

My Dear Trainee Teachers
As you’ll be embarking on another chapter of your education,
Go with zeal and full determination,
Be curious to see your new destination,
Its an environment where you’ll meet the future generation,
Hoping to see you deliver up to their expectation.

My Dear Teacher Trainee 
The College has impacted in you knowledge, a tool for transformation
Both academic and moral formation 
You're entrusted to represent the whole Institution
Raise the flag of our nation
And try to avoid any sort of abomination.

My Dear Teacher Trainee
It does not matter where you would be posted as your destination,
Because everywhere is part of our noble nation
Go and carry on this noblest of occupation
Remember where you came from and desist procrastination
Because it is the beginning of frustration.

My Dear Teacher Trainee
In the classroom students will be curious to see your every motion
Since, they were told to welcome
The new Teacher Trainee from a strange location
Be an early bird as its a sign of devotion 
And resist coming late, lest you be caution.

My Dear Teacher Trainee
Don’t forget to plan your lessons; it would help you in better implementation
Teach them well; teach your pupils how to build a nation
Show them how good students should behave in your explanation
Because you may never know what they learn from observation
Give them significant and relevant information
And maintain good channel of communication.

My Dear Teacher Trainee
Be a role model to every student; inspired them in your expression
Hit the nail on the head in a state of confliction
Accept when you are wrong and try to improve on your weak portion 

You must inspire
So that they’ll aspire
Before your time expire

My dear Marabi, you have created a wonderful poem. I especially love the last stanza and this is such sage advice: "Remember where you came from and desist procrastination Because it is the beginning of frustration."Welcome to PoetrySoup, a place where wordsmiths learn to love each other.
