I Dreamed

I dreamed I stood in a studio
And watched two sculptors there,
The clay they used was a young child's mind
And they fashioned it with care.
One was a teacher;
the tools she used were books and music and art.
One was a parent
with a guiding hand and a gentle, loving heart.
And when at last their work was done
they were proud of what they had wrought.
For the things they had worked into the child
could never be sold or bought.
And each agreed she would have failed
if she had worked alone.
For behind the parent stood the school,
and behind the teacher stood the home.
~Ray A. Lingenfelter

Release a Literate Child

Release upon this land
A child who loves to read,
And you have firmly planted
One perfect, growing seed.

Release upon this land
A child who loves to write,
And you have ensured
The chance for endless flight.

Release upon this land
A child intrigued by thought,
And you have freed
An imagination once caught.

Release upon this land
A child with self-esteem,
And you have empowered
Another mind to dream.

~Sigmund A. Boloz
