COME TO ME
by Jean Feldman
Whether you are large or small, rich or poor –
Come to me.
Whether your skin is brown or beige, gold or tan –
Come to me.
I’ll embrace you and love you and cherish you –
Come to me.
I’ll play with you and make you laugh –
Come to me.
I’ll kiss your hurts and keep you safe –
Come to me.
I’ll give you happy memories and dreams for tomorrow -
Come to me.
I’ll share the wonder of learning and the joy of each day –
Come to me.
I’ll take time to listen to you and try to understand you –
Come to me.
I’ll cheer you, encourage you, and believe in you –
Come to me.
I’ll never give up. I’ll try and try. I’m an early childhood teacher.
Come to me!
