Teachers.

Teachers shape students' thinking
and paint their minds.
Share their accomplishments
and offer suggestions on their flaws.
Inspire a passion for learning and truth.
You're illuminating the path.
Which way does our young go?
Because with each lesson you impart,
our future becomes brighter.
You prolong your smile with each one.
You contribute to the achievement of each goal.
For each poet's, philosopher's,
and king's beginnings.
It all starts with a teacher.
And the knowledge they provide.
