A Portrait of An Educator

A poem by Heather

	You speak in the vernacular.
	You write in double-dutch.
	Your singing's quite spectacular,
	Completely out of touch.

	You teach adverbial phrases
	But your clauses don't make sense.
	You've stumbled thro' the mazes
	That your language represents.

	Your children use your parts of speech
	To ruin their creations.
	Thank-you, thank-you very much,
	Your teaching's a sensation!

Heather. (11½ yrs.)
