    "Teachers"

    Teachers are for listening to

    Teachers give us smarts

     

    Teachers show us what to do

    Teachers grab our hearts

     

    Teachers give us words to read

    Teachers give us books

     

    Teachers are an awesome breed

    Teachers bait our hooks

     

    Teachers learn their lessons well

    Teachers know the score

     

    Teachers get us out of hell

    Teachers are at war

     

    Teachers fill our need to know

    Teachers do their best

     

    Teachers love to watch us grow

    Teachers work for less

     

    Teachers are a careful clan

    Teachers have to be

     

    Teachers take us by the hand

    Teachers help us see

     

    Teachers like to talk a lot

    Teachers give us space

     

    Teachers praise us when we’re hot

    Teachers kiss our face

     

    Teachers practice discipline

    Teachers can be odd

     

    Teachers teach us how to win

    Teachers work with God

     
    John Christopher 1983

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
