Is there a more noble profession than a teacher?

Constructing the minds of a new generation

Architects of lesson plans, Philosophers of education

Janitors of muck and grime, Laborer of politics

Patience of a saint, discipline of a general

Every role is another job and every job is another role. 

 

Yet as busy as they are, the power they wield is next to null.

The world has little thanks for them

Little appreciation for the wars they win before they begin

And they’re expected to do it all with a smile on their face

So here is an ode to the educator, a tradesman of all trades

May their seeds take root, and their trees bear fruit.

 

It is really all we can hope for.
