She carries us to worlds unknown
of wonder and delight,
unveils the mystery of the code
and transforms dull to bright.
What would have been a grudging chore
has now become a song
of letter sounds and verbs and nouns
and learning right from wrong.
As she pours out her life for us
we’ll never be the same.
I thank my God for such a gift,
and Teacher is her name.
by Jane E. Clark (I wrote this for Anita Mills in 1996. She was my daughter Sharon’s 1st grade teacher at Christian Life Learning Center in Corinth, MS. She deserved great praise for her creativity, love and hard work.)
