The Best Teachers

I got a gift card and thank you card from my director for teacher's appreciation with this poem about the best teachers

The Best Teachers

Teachers open up young minds,

showing them the wonders of the intellect

and the miracle

of being able to think for themselves

A teacher exercises

the mental muscles of students, stretching and strengthening,

so they can make challenging decisions,

find their way in the world,

and become independent.

The best teachers and care enough

To gently push and proud students

to do their best

and fulfill their potential.

You are one of those.
