The Best Teacher Forever A.K. A My Second Mother Poem by Lucia Tenezaca

Let me tell you about my best teacher forever, in fact you can call her my second mother. She is loving, caring, trustworthy, helpful, protecting, and patient. I tell her all my secrets, feelings, and problems and I know that she will keep them in confident.

This relationship started three years ago. The minute I walked into the school I felt happy. The reason I felt this way was because I knew there was going to be a teacher I could count on when I have a problem. A teacher who always shows that she loves her student like if she had her own child. A teacher who gives her student a hug when she is going through a big situation. A teacher who always says' I will always be there for you no matter what.' A teacher who cares about her student' s education like a mother does. The second person I would go to if I had a problem. A teacher who I can rely on and come back and say'' Thank You for everything you have done for me.' A teacher who protects you like a mother would. A teacher who always is patient In helping you.

When I met her I knew that there was going to be a connection. I knew that somehow there was that special person that I can always go to. I also know that your first friends can be a teacher. I knew that when I met her I can call her ' my second mother.' When the day comes for me to leave this building it will be hard to let her go because she was a person I look up to.
