Robert John Meehan's...A Teacher's Pledge

 A Teacher's Pledge

By Robert John Meehan

To the DIFFICULT ones

I'll be patient

To the PAINED ones

I'll  be concerned

To the FRUSTRATED ones

I'll be committed

To the IGNORED ones

I'll be accepting

To the INDIFFERENT ones

I'll be caring

To the DEMANDING ones

I'll be modeling

To the ANTISOCIAL ones

I'll be including

To the INATTENTIVE ones

I'll be interesting

To the NEGATIVE ones

I'll be assisting

To the UNFEELING ones

I'll be reflective

To the DISTRACTIBLE ones

I'll be focusing

To the UNACCEPTED ones

I'll be embracing

To the SERIOUS ones

I'll be amusing

To the INEXPERIENCED ones

I'll be enriching

To the SUBVERSIVE ones

I'll be forgiving

To the LAMENTED ones

I'll be consoling

To the OTHER ones 

I'll need to catch them up

 with their BUBBLE TESTS
