Modern Degree (Dedicated To Miss N Patel- Roseville Secondary School Poem by Thandanani cele

To others you are – just a teacher
But for me, you are more than “god’s creature”.
Some apply themselves to earn a salary
But you go beyond that boundary.

So keenly, you’d always ask;
If we have understood every task.
Sometimes I don’t know if we deserved
All the knowledge we forcefully observed.

You are- a bright spark
That will always shine on us in the dark,
Cause you made it hard to understand;
If you was a teacher or a best friend.

Surely it wasn’t easy,
But you did all, to keep us busy.
Words can never express what I feel
For your dedication, hardwork and skills.

Please forget about those who drove you mad,
And focus on those who made you feel glad.
To me, you was never sad and never bad,
laughter, joy and lots of knowledge is all you had.

No matter what you always served
The best education a student should have.
For all your hardwork, I must confess;
You are my hero, my role model and the cause of all my success.
