Dedicated to a special teacher of mine
Just as if it were yesterday
This clear memory often replays
You sat backwards in the chair
Letters on the paper in your hand
It was a little scary at first
Learning to read between the lines
The world lost its black and white
Exploring now depths within grey
Amazed at how the words came alive
A thousand hidden treasures found
Even more discoveries lay in store
As I started writing worlds of my own
Sharing the answers not found in books
Some mysteries still remain unsolved
Do not be deceived by a destination
The key lies in the journey itself
You gave me courage to find a dream
Nurtured as wings grew to set it free
Flying now amidst the clouds I hope
Someday I'll live up to what you see in me
