Both were appreciated.

It seems that you have been in that tunnel for at least 6 weeks. 'Bout time you see some light. :)

Graphic by Billie

The Slate

To teach someone else is to be a scribewright,
Awakening knowledge and childish delight.
Forming the letters, and making the sounds
And later we’ll learn about verbs and pronouns.

For now we’ll attend to this ancient rite,
We’ll practice, and scribble, and then we’ll recite.
The learning is fun as a new thing can be,
A secret code leading to literacy.

There’s patience required when learning to write,
Tiny fingers discover chalk puts up a fight.
The teacher must also control her sweet charm,
For the sake of the student who’s attached to her arm.

There’s only one way to get everthing right,
Every sound has a symbol we can hear at its sight,
And soon the young maiden will craft her own thought,
And she’ll thank her dear teacher with what she’s been taught.

I read that the way it wasn't written.

Thanks for this wonderful poem; it is definitely worth repeating.

Thanks so much, Amy!

Amy picked me up and snuggled me in this basket.
Scrunched me down under the Teddy Bear, hat and flowers
For what seemed like hours.
Before being delivered to someone named Jack.

Amy says he's quite the kittie poet.
With a last name of Deth, you'd hardly know it.
But if Amy says it's Okay, I'll be up to the task.
I hope he has a window ledge where I can lay and bask!

I'm wiggling up now, slow and quiet.
The flowers' scent a delicious riot.
Sliding up almost under the hat, beguiling.
Well, what do you know? Jack is smiling!

Jack Deth~ 06/29/05.
