The Teacher and the Student

An idea popped into my head the other day while I was driving and listening to NPR. I don't recall what was on and I don't know what the inspiration was, but I got the idea for a short series of short poems.
I've never really been into poetry--not reading it, nor writing it.
Here is my attempt at some free form poetry. There may (or may not) be more.

The Teacher and the Student

Help me to learn.
Day by day, help me to grow.
Teach me the things I need to know.
Show me problems from a different perspective.
Teach me to think and solve them my way.
Teach me to see that different people learn in different ways.

Dear Student, 
Teach me.

Signed,
The Teacher
