Dear Students

To my students:

Thank you for the poems!
Thank you for the power!
You softened my pain,
You sweetened the sour,
You wrapped me up in love,
You rocked my foundations,
You proved me that teaching
Is a magical wand
That turns you into Maya,
William, Roald, or Freud.
Your poems caressed me,
Your lines truly roared,
They spurred me to spring up
And get ready for war!


27 January, written after all the messages they sent me before my first chemo
