Day 29 - OctPoWriMo 2013: Epitaph for a Teacher



 Today's prompt called for an Epitaph Poem. An epitaph poem is a tasteful summarization of the life of a person.



Epitaph for a Teacher

Here lies a teacher
Beloved and true
She did her best
Touching all she knew

She taught us English
History, math
Lead us on a
Righteous path

Of learning
And becoming more
Outgrowing  ourselves
As we were before

So watch out, world
This is your cue
Hearts full, heads up
We’re comin’ through

Thanks to teachers
For a life of giving
Their inspiration
Keeps us living
