To teach
Is to impart pieces of yourselves
Your knowledge
Your perception
Your intent
To scatter them like seeds, into the universe of another’s mind
To take root
In another’s heart
Thanks to the teachers
You don’t know what seeds will take root
Which will be nourished
Grow tall
The lesson taught does not always match
The lesson learned
We will build and grow our own perceptions
knowledges
intents
But the seeds came from you, the teachers
Sowers of ideas
Reservoirs of knowledge
Thanks to the teachers
You live on
in many minds
in many hearts
