A Child’s View of Death

People say now that Grandpa was thin
But he had plump cheeks; cancer had set in 

Each Sunday penny candy in my hand he’d place
And with rugged hands he’d embrace my face

To an impetuous toddler, his cigars smelled foul
But I don’t remember...

It's the look of anticipation in a preschoolers eyes
as he holds your hand near the playground gazing in skies.

It's the prolonged kiss when the preacher says to the couple side by side
“I pronounce you man and wife, you may kiss the bride.”

It's the gaze of...

like rambunctious preschoolers
at morning recess
eager to entertain you
in goofy games of pretend...

'Pon reading tragic headline...,

no matter the killer (Chris Watts,
     thirty-three years
     of Frederick, Colorado) unknown
     to me, the sheer brutality,

Just a Thought
Not too long ago
Cigarettes permeated our culture
Tobacco companies were powerful
Science discovered a link between
Cigarettes and cancer
Cancer was deemed unhealthy

You no longer see media ads for cigarettes
You rarely see smoking in movies

It seems that someone somewhere noticed

Violence permeates our culture
Even down to a recent ad for...

Premium Member Teaching Preschool
I sneeze, and everyone follows suit.
Curiouser and curiouser.
I laugh and half of them laugh.
Two of them pointedly laugh louder after the rest of us quit laughing.
There are always two in every class.
I try to move and step on two of them.
How they magically got under...

Death of the Scrapbook
My mum and I made many scrapbooks over the years.
To find inspiring and interesting pictures was not hard
And most magazines got past my mothers sense of decorum
And her duty to protect me from scantily clad ladies in my formative years.
My mother continued scrap booking for...

Hope
I think there is s a town in Mississippi where hope lives, 
a place were clouds look like purple cotton candy in a bright blue sky.
Where the best of the best parade down main street every Saturday.
Imaginations run unabandoned like, preschoolers questioning everything and 
encouraged...

Premium Member She Comes To Town
Once a year she comes in the middle of the night.
While children are dreaming about her eccentricities and specialties.
Her colors, her laughter, her barks, and shrieks and screams,
When children are on her Tilt-a-whirls and Rocko-Planes.

Once a year, she comes to town, silently, stealthily, in the...

Premium Member Cdc Manual For School In the Fall
Pandemic madness.
Just read the CDC Manual for school next fall.
All children must stay six feet apart.
Have they ever met a three or four-year-old?
Have they ever taught kindergarten?

We have seventy-six kindergarteners in our school,
and there are at least thirty-eight preschoolers.
None of them can keep their hands...

Premium Member Preschool Teachers Know What to Say
"please sit on your sitzfleisches,"the 4th grade teacher said
Preschoolers do not understood German, so they continued to stand
"Sit on your hindquarters!" This was stated a bit louder.
The kids stared at her, still not understanding.
"Your haunches, your petootsies, your derrieres!"
They looked totally consternated now.
A preschool teacher...

Though no political pundit, nevertheless
Though no political pundit, nevertheless...

I trumpet the withdrawal
of democratic contender from out the presidential race.

Breaking headline news story
courtesy rumor monger premieres
showcasing emphatic groundswell
against feeble minded incumbent.

Extraordinary turn of current events
immediately enlivens the United States populace
injecting much needed lively discussion
about gerontocracy deliberating for the electorate.

Though ill...

Premium Member Can I Read Them a Book
I go to the preschool teacher and say “Can I read a book to the preschoolers today?”
She says “YES!’
I have read a book there before, and I love it.
And they love it.
She said “You know they love you.”
I say “I love them too and I...
