To Professor Dora Burton upon her retirement.
B ehold, our friend, of gentle light and depth.
A lady who through sorrows saw the sweetness.
R enown is she for her hard work and breadth.
A teacher, whose momentum's a joy to witness.
T ime grew the grove, then forest of your young.
Y our children, ready to take up the lectern.
N ow it is time to reach for a new rung,
S earch for a restful muse, a gentler vector.
K indle hearths of friendship, plant and reap new fruits...
Y ou've raised many saplings, to your health! Salute!
NB: Professor Burton is a renown Baratysnky scholar. This work is in the style of "На посев леса".
To Dora
