A Loving Teacher

A Loving Teacher: Pat McClain – A Short Teachers Day Poetry

A Loving Teacher: Teachers play an essential role in our life as an ideal teacher is responsible for the development of the students. Teachers play a vital role in creating a strong foundation of basic knowledge, not only regarding subjects but also for life. It is mostly what we learn at school that helps us throughout our lives when we have to make important decisions and perform other crucial tasks. 

Having a particular teacher that you are especially comfortable with can be a massive advantage as it can help you move through your school years in an easier way. A good teacher can also act as a mentor, guiding you all through your life, even apart from just academics.

A Loving Teacher Poetry by Pat McClain

Things our grown-up mind defies
Appear as giants in children‘s eyes.

A gentle touch upon her head
A simple word when kindly said.

Complete attention when she calls.
Her knowing you have given all.

Correcting in a loving way.
Instilling trust in what you say.

Making her believe unique
The tiny flaw upon her cheek.

Admiring old and faded dresses.
Reminding her we all make messes.

Words of comfort you’ve softly spoken
A promise you’ve made she knows won’t be broken.

Your knowing her doll that was lost today
Is just as important as bills you can’t pay.

Helping make her plans and schemes
Giving her hope and building her dreams.

All of this and so much more
Is in her mind forever stored.

They who touch her life awhile
Can either make or break that child.

Education is important, true,
But so much more, her faith in you.

You’ve weathered through the storm and strife;
You helped to build a small girl’s life.

You’re truly one to be admired.
For you gave more than was required.
