Information Math

St. John gave its pupils arithmetic
I glided through these 
Like breeze of Belize

Los Angeles City College leveled me
Algebra had me on my knees

YET

I clamored to Cal. State, Long Beach,
Where Information Science sacked me

I fought back on campus lush lawns
Lingered crossed-leg in summer sun

WON

My grade was not an F
I graduated and felt blessed.

OK, Judy. I've been reading more your creations; some naturally funny, witty, matter-of-fact most interesting, I clicked for more inspiring read, and there'll be no end to it. Thanks for everything.
