Teacher

Teachers proudly stand in front of the class

With knowledge and influence en masse,

Igniting a flame in curious minds

Proficiently as the lessons unwind.

Teaching, a calling that burns deep inside

To instruct thirsty, inquisitive minds.

Installing passion that leads to success.

Inspiring pupils to give of their best.

Encouraging scholars' creative gifts,

Praising, applauding whatever it is.

Those who are taught well live well, get ahead.

Blessed are the teachers, it has to be said.

It doesn't go unnoticed, the work involved

Developing great people to evolve.

All humble, nurturing teachers out there,

Thank you all for your compassionate care.

Those who go on to find their hopes and dreams,

Remember the teachers who cast the beams.
