The
Bell Rings
How
do we instill into the young minds
In
such a short span of time?
Inspiration,
motivation, dedication.
Understand
the meaning of the syntax and inflections.
Going
in the upward direction
Of
higher learning, always concerning ourselves
With
the meaning, constructing, creating, debating
The
varieties of texts we are translating.
Why
do we love what we do
How
did the love of learning become within you?
Its
not for the gratitude
A
treat or a grade.
The
answers lies in the progress we made.
Confidence
in the words that you speak,
Literary
analysis in the book we critique.
A
never ending maze
Of
well written essays.
The
joy of a child when learning clicks
The
ability to identify, analyze, and predict.
The
future of tomorrow lies in the prize
Of a
spark of excitement in a student’s eyes
When
the concepts come together anew
And
they push on to pursue
A
better tomorrow for me and you
All
that began with the seed of a gift
The
key to learning is to always persist.
So
when you ask me what I do
With
only forty five minutes time of pushing through
Lessons,
reading, and writing
Putting
a spin on the lessons to make it exciting
And
you ask me why I love to teach
It’s
the accomplishment of taking a student where they dare to reach.
