This is for our second set of parents
The ones with fifty shades of colors
To fill in most of our gray
This is for ones that seek to give more than FCAT skills in hopes to increase their pay day
This is for the ones that care more than the average
This is for our teachers
Fitting right in between
Parents and preachers
Plastering the walls of our minds with great knowledge
This is for the ones who become the love that some children will never get outside of school walls
This is for the ones that become the yes to our No
I can’t make it
This is for the ones that educate us with more than just a packet of words just to keep us busy
For the ones that give us the opportunity to do more than just fake it till we make it
This is for you
The one that became a lifeline to our deprived minds
For you
The one that turns idle minds into a breeding ground for greatness
And because your life exudes your dedication and determination
This one’s for you
This is my salute
to you
