| Teacher
I journey in to your mind unknown,
in to your heart of secrets untold.
Where the stitches of your future are sewn,
in to your dreams, where your destiny will unfold.
I look deeper and more I can see,
the full extent of your disillusion.
But by your side is where I’ll be,
helping to end your confusion.
For I am your teacher,
a giver of all that I can.
An educator and a nurturer,
committed to helping you, again and again.
You can completely trust me,
this truth I solemnly say.
For I don’t do this for the money,
a heartfelt love of teaching is why I stay.
Teaching is a gift,
for both the recipient and the giver.
Learning is your precious gift,
and mine is being your teacher.
Understand, self-worth isn’t about money,
it’s about how you live and give.
I sincerely hope there will come a day,
when you’ll appreciate the teaching that I did.
And on that very last day,
when I’m called to my final rest;
I’ll be comforted in hearing our Lord say,
“well done teacher, you gave your very best.”
