The Art of Teaching

The Art of Teaching

This poem and print were written and created for a retiring art teacher, celebrating her decades in the classroom, inspiring generations of young junior high artists.

The Art of Teaching

Oh what a joy to touch a child’s soul
To serve and act as a creative muse
To embrace art its beauty to extol
To broaden and enlighten children’s views

Oh what a joy to see a child own
Her innate power to mold and to create
That her creative spirit might be shown
Another work to love and celebrate

Oh what a joy to learn, to teach, to share
Transmitting knowledge understanding dear
Connecting minds a precious thoroughfare
Remembered as a mentor through the years
