I'm a teacher..............
Behind that doctor,
Is me, a teacher...........
Behind that economist,
Is me, a teacher..........
Above those astronomers, is me, a
teacher..............
I carry the light even though they mostly
make jokes of me...........
But I am a teacher........
I don't qualify for a RDP house nor earn
enough to buy an expensive one.............
But yes, I am a teacher...........
Some think or even say that I have too
many holidays, never knowing that I spend
those holidays either correcting papers or
planning what and how I'm going to teach
when I go back to school........
Because I am a teacher..,
sometimes I get confused and even get
stressed by the ever changing policies by
the politicians who have political powers
over what and how I have to teach.......
Despite all that I am a teacher and I have to
teach and I'm teaching.............
On pay days I don't laugh as others do, but
by the next day I have to come with a smile
to those that I teach........... Because I'm a
teacher.........
The main source of my satisfaction is when
I see them growing, succeeding, having all
those assets, bravely facing the world and
its challenges.
Yes I am a teacher........
It doesn't matter how they look at me,
It doesn't matter how much more they earn
than me,
It doesn't matter that they drive while I
walk
because all what they have is through me, a
teacher.. Whether they acknowledge me or
not......
I am a teacher...........
