Teachers affect eternity

by:  Mark Adrian Manguiat

How can I build the tallest  tower

If he didn’t teach me how to convert a meter

How can I make my greatest inventions

If he didn’t teach me how to make observations

How can I draw my greatest blueprints

If she didn’t tell me to make some drawings

How can I make the most gorgeous clothing

If she didn’t teach me the art of sewing.

Will you be able to read this poem by now

If there’s no teacher who told you how

Will I be able to write these letters and words

If there are no good teachers in the world

A teacher affects eternity

How their influence will end, no one will see.

I can’t imagine the world it would be.

Without teachers who gave wisdom to me.
