Sometimes

by Rafi Zari, Amal "B" Comprehensive School, Petach Tikva

Sometimes she makes me laugh
Sometimes she makes me sad
But my grades are pretty bad
Sometimes she yells at me
And she says, "someday you"ll see"
Sometimes she is really tough
Someday she'll really want my autograph
Sometimes I scream why me why
But in the parents day I always cry
Sometimes I think where I'll be without my teacher
I know I'll be richer
Sometimes when I'll spend time with my wife
I'll tell her my teacher is a friend for life.
