Just as the Child is Father of the Man[1],
So is the Teacher by her Students taught,
When lessons do veer from the careful plan
And wisdom is revealed in brand-new thought.
For though she is much by her training formed
In knowledge’ path she far-too-often falls
But hopeful views have much her cold heart warmed
When cynic’s theories do her patience stall.
Though she does wield the stamp of learning’s ends
The means of knowledge seep between her hands
Experience can this bookish thought transcend
And pull from tangled knots newly freed strands.
Let not the span of years one’s learning cease
For taught by Pupils, Teachers’ views increase.
