Now I Am Back To School

Many a year so far a sweet sensation would within surge as back to school season has just begun.. The feelings of a child eager and joyful to pile notebooks, pencils and pens excited to have them all in a schoolbag.. Even as a teacher that sweet habit, that unique joy got wild much more! a deep conception that a smile, a word could change a world a strong conviction that teaching is a vocation a mind trained to train a heart able to see and comprehend confused faces gazing at you seeking the secret of success! day dreamers, untamed teens aspiring to reach and own the treasure within.. Many a year by this time soul and whole I would wonder what would I utter of words willing to sow the seeds of passion in virgin lands to instill a love of learning a deep sensitivity to guide to goals to cultivate creativity.. What would I teach of lessons use of methods to inspire young souls and their imagination kindle! Now I’m back to school with a load on the heart a sense of culpability torn about what I should and must do.. The world of teaching a hallmark of my identity leaving that part of me a possibility even a necessity.. My heart aches for the realm of poetry the power of words that translate my innermost emotions and reflections their magic that transcends what is ordinary.. I have a longing for a sense of belonging to the world of words I am an avid reader and learner with a passion for creative writing and leaving a world would not mean ceasing to be..

Dear, Besma, Your poetry is absolutely remarkable, and it holds the attention of the reader. Your enthusiasm for teaching, as well as your eagerness to get back into the swing of things after the break, comes through loud and clear in every sentence. Your rich and eloquent descriptions take the reader back to that exhilarating and joyful time. It is a delight to notice the passion that you have for learning and the commitment you have made to your studies. This poem is an absolute masterpiece.

What Makes a Teacher Memorable? You may not remember all the teachers you've had, but I bet there were a few who made a lasting impression. They may even influence your own teaching today. So what makes a teacher memorable? Students often remember teachers who were kind or funny or brilliant or passionate. They remember teachers who cared about them. They remember teachers who were supportive or encouraging or saw something in them no one else did. They remember teachers who challenged them and made them think.

Wow, dear poetess, this poem comes with a heartfelt sense of nostalgia whilst infusing such bright shades of new beginnings, when the students and teachers return to their realms of learning and knowledge. Your words are evident of the fact that you're a brilliant teacher, who strives to make things more valuable for the students and wants to paint a whimsical world of learning for them.So that they can excel in their lives! Such a kind and compassionate heart you possess, I absolutely love this

My dear friend, I am sure (I was a teacher once) that once you step up into the school, you will feel the elation of someone who knows what to do and aspire to impart your well-drilled knowledge. The beginning is always difficult, but once there you will succeed as you always do. Blessings my friend.

I've mentioned this before I'll bet your a great teacher. Your kids probably love you, though I remember it brings you stress too. Well, you certainly are a poet that's for sure. Now, off to school you go...

Sara and I are retired teacher, Besma, the joy of seeing that light go on in a student's face is a blessing we both miss. Since retiring we've both taken up writing as our main daily activity, along with reading spiritual books of many authors. I enjoyed reading your passionate poem about teaching, returning to school, and students. I'll be adding this poem to my FAVs list. Thanks for sharing your heartfelt poetry with us, my friend. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

this to me is a wonderful and deep poem expressing who you are as a teacher and as a very kind soul. Teaching kids has to be a hard job but if one loves it maybe not so bad. A gem and a fine fav in my book. God bless you.

What a profound and beautiful write this is dear island poetess, I absolutely loved reading this and for some reason it does emanate nostalgia at it’s finest, the first day of school … it must be challenging to handle and be a teacher for teenagers, critical age, where they go through so many emotional changes, and from your poem i can see you feel and think deeply for their future and thoughts, so caring you are. And those last lines are brilliant: world of words, realm of poetry! Luv this: fav
