TEACHERS


Tolerant, supportive and sympathetic teachers are the best
While most seem ideal, some shouldn’t teach at all.
Great teachers find their work fruitful and rewarding
As they pass on their knowledge with love as their call.

Good physical and mental health are a important
For teachers must have energy, stamina and determination.
To shoulder their duties as shepherds of thought
Passing on wisdom to each generation.

In the words of Henry Adams, “ Teachers affect eternity;
You can never tell where their influence will cease.”
As the teachers of the Bible spread their message
Their students learned of war, faith, love, death and peace.

Teachers world over have the same basic goal
To help others mature, reason, accomplish and grow.
They instruct, inform, debate and discipline
Teaching the rudiments of life we should know.
