To shake the hand of


To shake the hand of the principal is my goal

To uplift my parents soul

To make my teachers proud

To stand in front of the crowd

I am a student that sits in the class

But one day I will be the one holding the mighty glass

You taught me about math

But you also taught me about the on looking path

You taught me about science

But you also taught me about true friends and our alliance

You taught me about emigration

You are the one that will inspire me to fight for education
