What Makes a Teacher Special

A special teacher does NOT.... care about financial gain play the glorified sitter teach some, yet let others wane ever really seem bitter A special teacher DOES.... sometimes use their own accounts to get kids what they need. Not caring about amounts preparing to plant the seed. They don't.... give up on "unteachables" hand out notes and walk away care that much for timetables dismiss what a child might say They do..... use every single facet to aid children's connecting. try hard to help ALL get it have great ears for listening All their tots are respected no matter their race or size They comfort those dejected to the top, they help them rise. Our world needs more of their kind caring souls, oversized hearts Passion for sculpting a mind deep within them, where it starts I know of one such teacher though it has not been for long Feel she's a children reacher molding them to become strong That's not what brings pen to pad the thought has my heart sinking What does could have been so sad if not for her quick thinking She saved a young life that day NO ONE dare say otherwise! Such calmness within the fray one's instincts, how they arise What was done, creditable a debt I can not repay Earned her place at His table Forget Nicole NE'ER A DAY!
