| Unity I dreamed I stood in a studio And watched two sculptors there. The clay they used was a young child's mind And they fashioned it with care.
One was the teacher...the tools she used Were books, music and art, The other, a parent, worked with a guiding hand, And a gentle loving heart.
Day after day, the teacher worked with touch That was deft and sure, While the parent standing by the side polished and smothed it o'er.
And when at last their task was done, They were proud of what they'd wrought, For the things they had moulded into the , 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.
