Inspiration From Our Readers
Ready for a bit of inspiration to remind you why you became a
teacher in the first place? These two poems should do the
trick.
Unity
By Ray A. Lingenfelter
I dreamed I
stood in a studio
And watched two sculptors there,
The clay they used was a young child’s mind
And they fashioned it with care.
One was a
teacher:
the tools she used were books and music and art;
One was a parent
With a guiding hand and gentle loving heart.
And when at
last their work was done,
They were proud of what they had wrought.
For the things they had worked into the child
Could never be sold or bought!
And each
agreed she would have failed
if she had worked alone.
For behind the parent stood the school,
and behind the teacher stood the home!
Teacher's
Prayer

Lord,
Please help me,
To strengthen their voices,
bodies and minds,
To express their feelings and
control them sometimes,
To explore what's near
and venture afar,
But most important to love
who they are.
