They have two families to look after, their own and the
One in the school, two different worlds. Yet, they do their
Jobs without complaint. You can't call them magicians
Or jugglers, but planners, executors and implementers.
They are teachers! They don't crib, even when given an
Extra task, duty or substitution, which they perform with
A smile. They treat their students with love and care, as
Well as they would treat their own children at home.
But then, they are human beings, for when they reach
Home, they are too tired and exhausted, (they might have
exhausted their patience at school) for their own children
And family, yet they handle chores with smiles and cheer.
So when you look at teachers, treat them with respect,
They give away all their lives to nurture children whom
They counsel and mentor future doctors and engineers,
Ministers and presidents, entrepreneurs and philosophers.
They are teachers who encourage their students to dare
To dream: to hope, to strive, to reach out for stars that
Shine in the heavens. The seeds of success are sown by
Them to grace the whole world with beautiful minds.
They are like gardeners, they nurture creativity and
Patience, perseverance, logic, brilliance and modesty,
All, a variety of exotic possibilities that few might craft,
Because very few have the patience of those who teach!
They are teachers, and they are driven by a passion to
Do what they do in class. They are perpetual learners
Who love to learn from others. Besides, they love their
Hobbies, and a book or two, if not explore the mountains.
They don't make money and care less about the brands they
Wear, but with excitement, they light up, thrilling minds
With sparks so bright. Their treasure lies not in bills, but in
Watching faces light up with immense possibilities of life.
They are teachers who are driven by a passion to make the
Difference, even if it is a small one. They are fed by the
Desire to mold others into better human beings by setting
Examples for others to follow, with humbleness - a virtue.
