When I was three, I could hardly speak. The kindergarten a weird place I was scared off. A dummy, the teacher said That’s what I am. The genius, you believed A joke of course.

You held my hands to Primary school. The frightening dictations, Tests and exams, Last I always came, I cried in front of you. I knew the dummy is me The truth no one denied.

“It’s okay sweetie, Not a big deal, You are clever, you are smart, We both believe, ” Tender words went through Years and years The lies I thought You were telling.

Love and guidance Never ends. The belief so firm And marvel God makes. I CAME FIRST when I was fifteen. And everybody shocked, For this miracle. My dear Mum and Dad, I hope it’s not too late.

University the door I finally entered. You said it’s nothing As you expected. The dummy girl got a Bachelor In English and History Tis the History that you made.

Now a teacher, yes I am! Spreading your belief. Nobody’s a dummy, Everyone’s educable, You and I believe.

I got a Master In Education. The pretty gown Beyond doubt yours, For the love and lessons you offered, And it’s now the celebration Of your dream. Once impossible, now a truth. The eternal encouragement Works on this “dummy”. My deepest thanks, To your kindhearted care. I promise you: This “dummy” is your pride.

Your “dummy” daughter ||  ||
