Poem

Report card read okay, not so good,
But he was not a kind who would brood.
Whacking when the cane came,
He watched a video game,
You must love this young lot’s attitude!

Poet’s Note: A cartoon inspired this limerick. A young school lad’s report card seemed okay, but far from good enough. But his father was not amused. He took a cane, put the lad on his lap, bottoms’ up and started whacking. The lad was unmoved, nonchalant, and quietly watched a video game all thru the punishment. This is today’s generation next. 

At eighty, I recall my school days. Same situation, my father would not focus on the 90 marks marked against mathematics, but would rather ask: and what happened to these 10 marks? And you dare not utter a word. But then to be fair, this lad also never uttered a word!
