Mama D's Challenge:
ReplyDeleteMy First Three Years of Teaching in 25 letters.
All day long
Beginning to end
Children, cursed Children
Darkening my Doorway, such
Evil demons! They’re
Fighting for attention (or Fighting each other)
Growing my frustration
How
I make it through a day I
Just don’t know. It’s
Kind-of
Like a prison, for
Me,
Not for them. Minus
Orange jumpsuits and
Prison guards and
Quite a lot of barbed wire. I have to
Remember.
Sighing, staring out the bars on the windows
There is a free world outside…and
Understandably it’s
Very clear that in the midst of our time served...
We, all teachers, only
Yearn….and dream of
Zinfandel, dark chocolate, and sweet escape...all day long.
ok this is #1 on the dare. free form verse fits the dare. love the last line
