(Written for my Students back in 2003)
"You should be in Hollywood,"
My students always say to me.
"Then who would teach you?
That´s my job don´t you see?"
They laugh whenever this I say,
And I thank God everyday,
For my first choice it was not,
But fulfillment I have got.
Whether it is reading a novel,
Or over grammar we shuffle,
Their pondering faces make me care,
I´m glad I have something to share.
So everyday we meet at school,
And we both learn from the Golden Rule.
Strangely after long weekends apart,
There is a space missing in my heart.
The first thing I hear when their class I enter,
Is always the cheery: "We missed you, Miss Brenda!"
"I missed you too. Thank goodness the weekend is over!"
The are definately my field with four-leaf clovers.
