Inspiration

I had a teacher who inspired me so
It wasn’t long before she had to go.
But after her classes and talks
I think and wonder while I walk.
She gives me inspiration to do so much more
And teaches on and on even when my head is sore,
But I sit and think of what wonder
Her lessons hit me like thunder.
What things could be seen?
Ireland’s valleys so green,
Egypt’s towers standing strong
The jungle so wide and long.
I dream of these and see her
And the black cat sits with its lovely fur.
I won’t cry or weep
For a treasure I do keep.
A small inspiration
To view in meditation
This is the power
The knowledge
The strength
And the hope
That my teacher has given me
But one thing of all
One thing very small: Inspiration.
