Wrong Door

I love kids. I really do.
I find them cute, funny and always happy.
They talk openly and they seldom lie.

I never see myself as a teacher
But If ever I would become a teacher
I would love to teach kids

On my way to finding the right path
A door was opened for me
I bravely entered it

I did not think twice.
I did pray but did not wait for answer
I got the shock of my life.

I love kids but not older kids
To be called "professor" sounds weird to me
By people just a few years younger than me

They cheat and they lie
They say bad words in classroom
I can count those who are polite

To talk in front of many strangers
Is not a dream come true
I entered the wrong door

I have to find the exit soon
But while I am still here
I will cherish the moment

I will remember few students
showing good manners and politely listening
Those who will turn their back to say thank you

I will give this job my best
For God and not for any body else
I will bear the pain for now

I will continue traveling this road
Until I find the right door
Surely, God will lead me there
