A Teacher Is…Someone who is wise...

Who cares about the students and wears no disguise.

But is honest and open and shares from the heart.

Not just lessons from books, but life where you are.

A teacher takes time to help and tutor.

With English or math or on a computer.

It's (Teacher' name) who's patient, even in stress.

Who never gives less than the very best!

Not that I was the perfect student,

But you were the perfect teacher for me!

And become a better person With each discovery.

To show us ways in which to grow

So we can all decide How to live and how to do What's right instead of wrong,

To lead us so that we can lead And learn how to be strong.
Why God created teachers, In His wisdom and His grace, Was to help us learn to make our world A better, wiser place.
