A Poem for Jodi
by Shelby M. Forrest


Jodi will graduate in June,
And her high school days will end.
She'll miss one special teacher, who
Has been a very dear friend.

"More than a teacher is Mrs. Deabay.
Like my second mom is she.
Her influence is greater than she will know,
And my friend she'll always be."

"She's never been other than sweet to me,
With a manner so pleasant and nice.
She is always there to listen to me
And give me sound advice."

"I now will feel an emptiness
Where she has been a part.
But ever will be reserved for her
A tender spot in my heart."
