I
dreamt I stood in a studio, And
watched two sculptors there. The
clay they used was a young childs mind, And
they fashioned it with care. One
was a teacherthe tools she used, Were
books, music, and art. The
other, a parentworking with a guiding hand, And
a gentle loving heart. Day
after day, the teacher toiled With
a touch that was deft and sure. While
the parent labored by her side, And
polished and smoothed it oer. And
when at last, their task was done, They
were proud of what they had wrought. For
the things they had molded into the child, Could
neither be sold nor bought. And
each agreed they would have failed If
each had worked alone, For
behind the teacher stood the school, And
behind the parent, the home. -
