one of these days i will grow in to forensic psychology studying living minds with science to see but that still wont ever stop me from perusing my dream to be a poet, writer maybe to have my words fill peoples hearts like yours did mine every word you spoke you said "was gold" granted yeah i was only in the sixth grade but you changed my life, still do to this day
i was new to a school, didnt know anybody all i had was a couple friends, paper, and pens and a mind full of poetry but every word i wrote, i felt was never enough i always loved writing, what a way to expressing the silent?! but how could i continue with the lack of confidence? i shared to a friend and they showed you and man let me tell you, your words. were truly golden gave me that hope the fact is, you believed in me and look at me now, i have PUBLISHED poetry!
all because of you you showed me that little hope i needed i was ready to end my writing give up and move on with my life but you convinced me i was something extraordinary not even my own family had faith in me but i knew every morning i walked in your class youd say my last name asking "is that french" and i knew right then it seemed to be the push i always needed you gave me hope and taught me i could do great things
all you did for me may not seem like much but that year my life changed for good because look at where i am im sharing my poetry to the world now! all because you took interest in my work and made me keep pushing on ive always wanted to say thank you some days i wish to shake your hand and tell you how happy i am tell me arent you proud?
i want to be an English teacher someday when i fulfill my need of psychology so maybe one day i could do the same for some kid like you did for me ill never be able to forget you and all you stand for because without you i wouldnt have made it this far
i guess this is a thank you poem ive been trying for years to perfect it but as long as it comes from my heart thats all you need isnt it? i pray and hope this poem the world will see so they all know what you did for me and i wish you the best of the rest of your days
thank you for being more than just a teacher to me.
i hope you see this, im not so sure if you will or not but this is a thank you for what youve done, for believing in me when no one else would because of that push you gave me look at where i am and where i intend to go
