104 My 25th Leaf

104.

My 25th Leaf



Picked thee from grown-up

Now in a small cup

Among leaves of nine

Of a dwarf-sized plant

Here, it's third “fortune!”



Perhaps a teacher

Or a gardener

A student could be

One who planted thee

TED territory



Twelfth day of this March

Sometime during lunch

While TED preparing

Lit. Day happening

This is second time



Along the pathways

Of Teacher Ed. place

Beside a classroom

Of BEED 2

Planted on a pot



Used as souvenir

For Lit. Day this year

With balls colorful

Artificial soil

In a ‘lil blue cup.
