Her twinkling face was so magical it was as hard to trace as if it were a piece of lace. And when you talked to that magical voice, the place magically changed into a dreamy space. If you gave her a dress that mirrored the night sky it would perfectly match the twinkle of her eye. She knew nothing of greed, but everything of how to lead. The blue of her eyes bled through the most impenetrable lies. If someone had fear or had lost someone dear, she'd hold them close and let them hear that kind, gentle voice, that never brought a tear. We'll always remember that twinkling face that brought joy and happiness to all kind and race. Dedicated to Mrs. Walker

always miss Mrs.Walker. She was kind, compassionate, fair and did not deserve
to die. On Friday afternoon she was struck by a truck, trying to cross
the road on an Arabian horse. The trucker tried to stop the truck but did
not succeed, and hit the Arabian’s back legs and our friendly teacher fell
headfirst on the ground and died.
