Dear Teacher,
#WritcoPoemPrompt21
You sat with me under the shade of the trees,
Reading out the words that made no sense,
Not once did you lose faith,
Or let me be,
The slow and steady learner,
The butt of all the jokes,
Duffer! Failure! And more...
I felt myself being burdened
by all that I lacked
yet you made me want to know
all that I needed
to succeed and be a winner .

You gave me hope
when I had none
you helped me grow
into that someone
I was meant to be.
You ensured that I'll no longer be blinded by feelings of insecurity.

Thank you for not letting go
and pushing me to do better
for going as far to teach me words letter by letter.

This poem is proof of the efforts you put in
Now I'm a writer, a poet
A pretty spectacular something !
