Our teachers should have
known better
but like the Camera
they too stopped time
They stayed on and on
hugging the books
seeing plays
and going to concerts
each year they watched
themselves go by
Freshman to Sophomore
to Junior to Senior
and back again
forever more
They were the ones
to blow the horns
But how could they
they were paid
to teach

Awaken our minds
let life worry
about our hearts
