Our Teachers, Our Heroes Poem by Joen Coronel

Epitomes of pedagogy
Pioneers of sound mind and body
Good manners and right conduct
Combine for a good product

Cultivators of experience
Who enrich learnings with sense
Doctors who heal us
When we have emotional fuss

Teach us to be literate
To read and to write accurate
Never let us suffer
To problems that are severe

Inculcate in everyone’s mind
Special virtues that bind
But now we have improved best from zeros
Because of our teachers, our heroes! ! ! !
