I thank you Teacher

I thank you for your helping hand,

For your warm and tender heart;

You will always stay in my heartland,

For giving me a brand new start.

I thank you for making me confident;

I couldn’t be without you if I tried,

You taught me to have courage;

To lead my life in stride.

Now I hold fast to tomorrow;

And treasure each passing day,

I never take anything for granted;

That can be taken away,

I’ve learned to count my blessings;

I never dwell on the past,

I’ve learned to build a brighter future;

With the knowledge from your class.

You're such a wonderful teacher;

For all it is plain to see,

I just want to let you know;

How much you mean to me.
