A Teacher

A teacher , 

A friend who supports

An educator who inspires

A mom who protects

And a pillar when there's a defect

A teacher , 

Someone through the highs and lows , 

Someone who helps us grow , 

Someone you can count on , 

Someone to rely on

A teacher , 

Smiling through the pain , 

Crying when no one's looking , 

Laughing when happy , 

Terrified when stressed

A teacher , 

Someone to be grateful for , 

Who helps to enhance and embrace our true form , 

A gift for me , 

Just a true delicacy 

A teacher , 

Their hard - work delights me , 

So this poem is for them to look at and be blissful as they deserve to be.
