Wonder what they learned in preschool

Obviously it wasn’t playing nice

Rarely can you trust a colleague

Kindness always has a price

Life - the Course

A baby is born 
Two dates separated by hyphen
Hyphen or dash: that's life

II
We fall in love -
One day one, or both, will die

III
We are born -
We learn; even think deep thoughts -
And die.

Premium Member Who Is An Artist

who is an artist? the preschool teacher asked
Every child raised their hand
Not only are they artists at three and four
They are dancers, singers, inventors, dreamers, schemers,
The best time of their life…..

Go To Sleep Nursery Rhyme

Go to sleep, go to sleep
Go to sleep little one
Close your eyes
Watch the skies
While it whispers your name
Go to sleep, go to sleep
Go to sleep little one
Let the stars fall
Let the stars call
While it whispers your name

Ode to my Students

Tiny hands
Pure hearts
Silly smiles
Footprint art
Cheerful shrieks
New found words
Belly laughs
Singing heard
As I open up the door
These are the sounds I hear
And everyday it gives me a reason
To have a smile stretching from ear to ear

Premium Member Quintessential Preschool Teacher

She was a teacher who knew how to dress
Wearing whimsical things – dinosaurs flowers, stars and such
She had no limits; too much was never too much
The children adored her for she was in touch with her childhood self
Making her the quintessential preschool teacher

Young Uns

I am the stereotype of a middle-age lady with grey hair
Working as a preschool teacher

Wearing mumu dresses in bright  colors

A Sunday school teacher wanting to make it a full-time job

To whittle myself a new profession

I'm not the brightest crayon in the box
But, I know I can do it!

Bubble Guppies

A nick jr show that's popular among many young kids.
It deals underwater creatures that solve problems through food.

I'm obviously too old for it and released way after my time,
But it's good to see what the younger generation of kids are into.

It seems nice and cute.
It just may get a bigger fandom once the audience gets older.

Mystery Solved

I saw a little button,
 It was lying on the floor,
 I wondered who had lost it
 And looked around for more.
 It hadn’t come from Donna
 Or from Stuart’s nice new shirt,
 And it wasn’t Kelly’s button
 That was lying in the dirt.
 I couldn’t find who lost it
 I had a worried frown.
 But now I know the answer,
 My trousers just fell down.

Premium Member At the Library

Pure possibility plays
Among the shorter shelves.
Here can be quickly glanced,
Quite easily, per chance:

Glittering, spinning castles,
With multi-colored shrubs;
Space-suited clowns,
Juggling throwing stars;
A grinning seahorse bobbing
Weightless in thin air;
Alleys winding dark and light,
With neon-green monsters;
Kindly white-haired grandpas,
Speaking distant dialects.

Dry night in vain

I'm in a dream, Peeing into a stream, A snake peeped out, Some on its snout.
A frog close nearby, Came out to pry, It got some too, From me it withdrew.
I found it funny, The way a bunny, Growled near a tree, Far from my pee.
Then I woke up, I rushed to cleanup Another bedwetting today again. Dry night in vain.

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 walked in.
"Sit on your pockets," she said.
They all sat.

Premium Member My Cute Little Puppy Nursery Rhyme

My cute little puppy,
let us go riding in my doll buggy,
let us go riding in my doll buggy.


My cute little puppy, 
I am so very lucky,
I am so very lucky,


We can go out and play,
it is a beautiful day,
it is a beautiful day.


We can go out and play,
pretty blue skies no gray,
pretty blue skies no gray.


My little cute puppy is here to stay,
that makes me happy~hooray,
hooray~hooray.

Her Show

She doesn't dance like Anna Pavlova
She doesn't sing like Diana Ross
but on this blissful day I am watching
the best performer I've ever come across

She wobbled on her pique turns
She forgot to point her toes
but she never lost her smile
a perfect angel until the close

She might not sing in perfect rhythm
She might not always be in tune
but her singing is so beautiful
it makes this proud daddy swoon

Premium Member Age Four Comes Easily

I see age four
Standing in the long school hallway
By his lonesome

Exasperated preschool teacher three doors up, watching.
I know her hands are full with another four-year-old
Who is also a run away.

I introduce myself.
Ask who he is. He mumbles something I cannot hear.
His name badge tells me his name.

I ask where he is going. He says “My mama’s house.”
He takes my hand and walks with me.
Easy peasy.

Premium Member The First Day

Hiding my face at the gate
I wait
for something to pull me 
from the inertia
of my fear.

Until it builds to breaking
through
and off I run
to join the fray
on this, my first day.

Sixty years past
I still remember 
the wonder of pre-school
at our neighbor’s home 
right beside the lake.

And so I think 
you too will remember this
as the first thing
you really had
of your own.

(for Tyrome - 9/5/23)

Premium Member Miss Bessy Cutesy Petootsie Teacher

Cutesy petootsie teacher with her hair so fine
The boys showed up every day in a line
The girls liked her too, she was a favorite all over school
One of the kindest teachers, and she was no fool

Her outfits were perfect, her hair the right kind of messy.
We called her Miss B, the principal called her Miss Bessy
She never missed a day, and we came every day too
The finest teacher I ever had since year preschool two

Busy Bee Me

People to face-book
Friends to text
Relatives to e-mail
Documents to fax

Comments to post on my-space
Business site to rewrite
Preschool site to blog
Poetry soup to type

Director, owner, teacher
Ten hour days
How I get it all done
Is hard to say

Time is precious 
Computer is taunting
The excuses I make
Are rather haunting

Miss the old days
The sun on my face
Talk radio, day dreaming
Life a slower pace

Premium Member Best To Make It Tall

I was in the Pop grocery store wondering why
People were dropping their goods at something of my.
I caught a glimpse in the mirror and realized my error,
I had arrived in my zebra suit, Wonder Woman mask and tiara.
"It's dress up day at preschool," I said with a shout.
Scared looks turned to delight, the word went all about.
In truth, it was Saturday, no preschool at all.
But if you want a tale, it's best to make it tall.

Praying To Eat

Sitting in silence
Trying to be patient
After standing in a hot line
For a hot meal
Instead of playing with hot wheels
With memories of being thrown 
Into a dumpster
To dive for food as a 3 year old
Before they started bleaching produce to kill us 
To protect us from the precious garbage.
 We knew we could get sick from it

Do not poison our food to protect us.

This night in church i wonder
Why must I pray for food?
