today is a very sad day
it is a very sad friday
today, a teacher dear to me
who always filled the class with glee
left the school for reasons of her own
and after school, her sadness had shown
after school, we all threw a party,
for the best teacher in the world.
we hugged and talked and got a bit teary,
and that favorite teacher's emotions were about to unfurl.
that favorite teacher will be missed and loved,
remembered for her class and play,
she promised she would come back and visit,
in our hearts she will forever stay.
