Inspired teachers create better persons.

If  I can just spread my arms

and embrace my students

when they need help.

If I can just see all the things

that they do to remind

them with love.

child and teacher

If I can just protect them

from the fangs of danger

and be their hero.

If  I can just be the solution

of all weariness and cares

they encounter.

If  I can just read their minds

and know what they need,

what concerns them!

If  I can be a meaningful word

that encourages them

all the time.

If I can just be their dreams

that can be easily reached

and be fulfilled.

If I can just be their footsteps

that lead them always

to the right path.

If I can just be their conscience

that prevents them of doing

unacceptable things.

If I can just be their tongue

that speaks rightfully

and uncorrupted.

If I can just be their cellphone

that sends love messages

rather than hate words.

If I can just be the  internet

that will divert bad desires

to an educative websites.

What else are the effective tools

I can  just be in order for them

to be a better person

each day?

I can just be their humble teacher

to pray for them earnestly

to shield them all the time.

I can just be their prayers!
