Julia Shaw Poet Rhyme

Thank You, Teacher

We teachers all on knowledge dine
And we unlock our students' minds.
So they can reach the path  divine
We really are a special kind.

We are mentors that push their yearning
We teach them how to read.
Then they can always read for learning.
We really are a special breed.

We are like shepherds guiding  sheep
Showing them how to take the right path.
Without our nurture, they would sadly creep
Through all the world unending wrath.

Yes, teachers, turn the pages
Of many wonderful books.
Our training reaches down through the ages
We teach our pupils for knowledge to look.

Thank you, dear teacher, 
For all, you have done.
In a world of so many
You are a special one.

Panagiota Romios June 2, 2020 at 1:09 PM Teachers are special. They can help create great citizens. As a retired teacher,in two states, I really enjoyed being with them. I love their wonder at life. They are not an embittered group seeking social justice. I felt I learned a lot from them. It was a great relationship. Such a lightness of being they have- Whooh! Love, Panagiota xoxo
