Teacher (in defence of schoolboy crushes)

Audio Recordings, Personal Growth, Relationships / tagged Learning, Teacher / October 5, 2018 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com
She was my teacher in grade four
I fell in love for evermore
not a love i could express
though with schoolwork might impress 
and so i spent my nights and days 
in search of learning and of praise
a flower opening to the light
in aching anguish and delight
then she went a moved away
it seemed life ended on that day
though looking back on that great year
not dimmed by time but made more clear
i see that ancient youthful yearning remains as love of love and learning
