You planted,
You watered,
You waited
And watched.
You planned and
You brainstormed,
Prepared and
Progressed,
Instructed,
Inspired,
Directed,
Stepped back.
You wondered
You worried,
You davened and
Hoped.
You struggled,
Persisted,
You questioned
Conferred.
You guided,
Ignited,
Neshamos
Unmatched
Whose light now
Shines brighter
Than ever –
For ever –
Thanks to you,
Our dear teacher.
Thank you.
