They say an educator is an inspiration <br />If his students pursue dreams with fierce dedication. <br />So this poem I write for a teacher I've just met, <br />Being in his class I wouldn't regret. <br /> <br />He might be just a 'second parent' in school, <br />But he ain't someone you can fool. <br />Take it from me, I've tried it several times, <br />And he'd catch me red-handed in every crime. <br /> <br />Algebra could be a hard subject to take, <br />But with his skills, it's kind of a piece of cake. <br />Now I know, for heaven's sake, <br />That quadratics are not a fake. <br /> <br />Moody too much, you might describe him. <br />When he gets angry, the sky would dim. <br />Hey, there's a reason, and that's us. <br />We'd disrespect him, then we'd lose his trust. <br /> <br />Oh yeah, he's approachable at times, <br />Confide problems to him without giving ten dimes. <br />His advices may not be the one you expect, <br />But sometimes, what he says is correct. <br /> <br />In his class, not only did I learn math, <br />But also lessons in life, and sometimes its wrath. <br />Though I sometimes hate him for unknown reason, <br />His class is better that Phoenix's past season. <br /> <br />You, my teacher whom I appreciate, <br />Are the person whose poem I dedicate. <br />You decide if it's a tribute or an ordinary piece, <br />I just hope this would bring peace.<br /><br />emmanuelle sanders<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-tribute-or-an-ordinary-piece/
