I am Your Teacher

If I could be your father,

I would take you on a hike.

I am your Teacher

If I could be your mother,

I would crown you with grace.

I am your Teacher

If I could be your sister,

I would share all my clothes.

I am your Teacher

If I could be your brother,

I would travel with you,

Both, high and low.

I am your Teacher

If I could be your friend,

I would always listen to you with intent.

I am your Teacher

I am none of these,

And yet, I am all of these.

I am your Teacher
