Educare Il Cuore (Educate The Heart)

In the classroom
In front of eyes alive
I too feel alive
The surge
Of urge to teach from the heart
To the heart,
To educate.
Oh, I feel it today
Oh, it is there in the air, Frierre!
The pedagogy of the free
And it is coming from me!
My heart and me
Be proud of me,
Won’t you?
“Be creative,
Imaginative”,
I tell my students.
And like the crack of a bat I hear it kiss the ball
And a moment later bounce off the bleachers,
Landing in the collective consciousness.
And I think to myself,
I love my job.
