we knew you where here because you made things change

you looked for ways to unstop the drain

listening to everyone bitch and complain, then you moved

a little twinkle in your eye, let everyone know that you had arrived

and you could join in to help or get out of the way

choice was up to you but today was the day, and that was that

i remember when you had had enough about this and that

and when you raised your hand the chatter stopped

point blank you asked, what can we do to make it right

people started working because they saw you cared

weren’t stuck up in your office reading your mail

but on the firing line when the buses rolled in

and when the kids walked through the door

the playing was over and the learning began

bet a lot of kids will look back and say that women could be mean

but she got my butt back on track

we will miss you Sarah, but you won’t be forgotten
