Gratitude

by: Jeffery Martin

for some reason you saw

saw past the slumped shoulders

and downcast eyes

and instead fixed your gaze

upon the smile which hid

just behind my eyes

for some reason you saw

saw beyond the ashy, bruised skin

to the heart of the matter

and although abuse colored my world

in your classroom the rainbow shone beautifully

and sun warmed the cold parts

in your presence I was capable of anything

and fifth grade held that magic

because you chose to teach beyond assignments

and reach down to a scared child with love

telling him through word and deed

that the world was anticipating his smile

Answer 1

I enjoyed it. Not a best seller but it's good and conveys it's message well.

Answer 2

Lame... .
