This teacher has such scary teeth,
they look just like a shart's;
his eyes gleam in the sunlight
like a pair of purple sparks.
His voice is just as booming
as the roar from some big gun;
he can imitate a thunderstorm
for a greusome bit of fun.
And now Billy who was silly
almost every other day
does his tables, writes his spellings,
hides his comic books away.
Every lesson lasts a lifetime...
with our noses to each page.
We imagine bars on windows
and the classroom seems a cage.
So please come back Miss Fothergill:
though you won't believe it's true.
We all loved you as our teacher;
we were oh, so fond of you!
Students are so strange.
When they have nice, loving teachers, they would create so many problems that such teachers either transform to become fierce teachers or leave the service.
When they have frightening and unkind teachers, they dread the class but somehow they learn and do the right things.
What kind of signal is sent to their teachers??

It is a nice poem to read but sometimes when we have kind teachers we don't appreciate them but only when we get fierce teachers only then do we learn our lesson. some of us may think that fierce teachers might teach us a lesson but the teachers we think that are fierce are not actually fierce but strict so that we do well because it is for our own benefit. 18/02/2016- ********** 34/33
