School Day's

Do you
remember the one room school
Where you
were taught the *Golden Rule*
You raised
your hand before you spoke
The teacher
got respect, not a joke
You were
taught the three*R's*
Reading,
Riting & Rithmatic*
And if you
got out of line
Your hand
got hit with a stick
The teachers
were serious about
The
encouragement they gave
They stood
up to many problems
Back then,
they were so brave
The teachers
gave guidance
That was
over and above
It came from
their heart
Given with
so much love
I'll always
be grateful
For the
education I received
You not only
taught academics
You taught
me to believe
To believe
in myself
To stand up
for what's right
From my
heart, I thank you
For being a
*Shining Light*
