The Education Eel Poem by John Sensele

Education matters a great deal
If in life you should make a grade
After you acquire a special skill
Enabling you to climb a hectic hill
Thereby for your family winning a basket of bread
Education matters a great deal
In steering your life away from the poverty ordeal
Since education on your career enthrones a tremendous trade
After you acquire a special skill
So proficient education now makes you feel
From your mind education lifts a drudgery dread
Education matters a great deal
In good time erase your education bill
If education standards should thrive undead
After you acquire a special skill
Education you nurture never stands still
If you enable education by your will to forge ahead
Education matters a great deal
After you acquire a special skill
