I Tried To Take Spanish

I tried to take Spanish once 
I was miserable.
I wanted subject verb predicate

I tried to take Spanish again
This time I was paying for it
High school was over, I could not get it.

I tried two more times to take Spanish.
Spent a lot of money that went down the ditches.
It was not until years later that I realized why.

Spanish starts with verbs.
I do not start with verbs.
I cannot start with verbs.

I want subject verb predicate
After my breakthrough did I take another Spanish class?
After wasting hundreds of dollars, are you kidding me? Absolutely not!

Learning languages is different for each person. Sometimes it is easy and natural and for others it's hard no matter which language they are trying to learn. Enjoyed your poem, Caren. Bill

Oh, mi amiga. Es muy facile! Spend some time in the Caribbean or Mexico, and it comes easily. Deb had the same problem learning it. She finally gave up, too. Yo quiero Espanol!

Gee I wish I had some idea what that mean. My Spanish consists of counting from one to twenty and the words taco and fajita.
