Dream Job


The confidence of a child

The foundation of a positive self-esteem

The smile of a student

When they accomplish what they set their mind to achieve

These are the things I live for.

 

The beauty of a choir’s song

The excitement of learning a new instrument

The satisfaction of a performance

That portrays for what it was meant

I live for these as well.

 

Music and kids

Kids and music

My two passions

My two loves

To teach kids music

Well, that would be like a gift from above

 

When I was a student

The other kids hated music class

They though it was a bore

They only looked forward to art and PE

But me? It was music I adored

But I was alone in my interest and awe

They didn’t give it a chance

A waste of time was what they saw

 

I want this to change

I need this to change

Music is very important you see

It is the foundation of many other things

Even math and history

 

Music stretches the brain

It speaks to the soul

It frees the mind

And it makes you whole

 

A beautiful song

can take the worst day

And make it a good one

With music there’s always a way

 

I want this to be known

To students everywhere

I want students to learn

I want students to care

 

I want to help kids more than anything else

To educate the future of our nation

What an opportunity

To be an inspiration

 

What a life-changing endeavor

What a blessing and joy

To share my love of music

I can’t think of anything more I would enjoy

 

Kids bring life

Kids bring bliss

I want to return the favor

By showing them this

 

By filling their days with music

By putting a song in their hearts

By inspiring them to stick with it

To help them to never fall apart

 

To give it a chance

To try it and see

That music can be just as much fun

As art and PE

 

I love kids

I love music

I want to spend my days surrounded by both

 

My dream job

My hopeful future

My passion

The greatest job ever!

 

This job

This end to my strife

This calling, this chance

Could quite possibly change my life
