School Place of Formation Textbooks and teachers, To usher in knowledge. Fond friends, fun and frolic. "A sweet garden where young minds bloom"

Premium Member New In School

A paisley shirt?
  Pants too tight.
Last year's shoes?
  He's so not-right.

Carries textbooks,
  And a flip-phone?
Doesn't cuss!
  Wears cologne?  

Should I befriend him?
  Better not.
My friends might see
  That I am who I'm not.

Falling Classrooms

Falling classrooms
are a laboratory of learning
cheer your nation with one heart
for the generosity
of poorly trained teachers
to make you doubt all ideas
Poor library and resources
challenge your search for knowledge
Poor facilities in the campus
train observation skills
Lack of textbooks
force you learn naturally
by yourself

Students At Work

Students at Work


See them work!
Studious looks,
Buried in books,
Leaflets flipping,
Binders snapping,
Pencils tapping,
Textbooks slamming,
Nick-knacks toppling,
Back-packs rummaging,
Noses rubbing,
Nail nibbling,
knees flapping,
Foreheads scrunching,
Eyebrows rising,
Lips compressing,
Faces scowling,
Chins supported,
Tongues catapulting,
Coughs echoes,
Work Accomplished!

Letters from the Extinct

Dear Human,
You knew me once.
I was the shadow crossing grasslands before dawn. I was the thunder of hooves. I was the cry above the marsh.
You named me. Measured me. Photographed me.
Then you archived me.
The museums keep my skeleton polished. The textbooks preserve my dimensions. The children memorize my disappearance.
I would have preferred a future.
Sincerely,
The Last of Us

Premium Member Starting In Truth

Starting in Truth

Should be the teacher's motive..
It is an acquaintance 
By the Teacher of her
Own Identity..

Starting elsewhere..in a textbook
In a settled belief..only serves
To diminish the teacher and to
Guarantee a quick departure of
The thing that is intended 
To be taught..a Recognition that

Textbooks and beliefs are 
Unsteady tools of Truth which
May be discarded in 
A more favorable Wind...

The Last Day of School

Tis a lovely day for students are glad 
The last day of the school year is anything but sad
No more assignments to study nor papers to write
Students can deal with William Shakespeare at next year’s fight
Textbooks have been returned and stored away
Lockers are cleaned out with nothing to stay
The students rejoice with the last bell’s ringing
But the teachers are doing a happy dance 
And tis they who are doing all the singing!!

A Is More Wonderful Than B

Some topics Ralph wants to survey
So as to salient facts convey,
Many textbooks available,
Quite a few: The Reliable...
Ralph thinks the few 'manageable'
For seen points undeniable:
On How Life is its knowledge sought,
Not ease procured from treasures bought; 
On how US is like Russia: 
Both of them for Friends in Asia...

But who shall the more the Goal aid:
Won't energy, mid course, start to fade?
A is more wonderful than B;
Just that where A is B might be.

A Return Journey By An Auto Rickshaw

An auto rickshaw, a carriage
Like a tortoise
Returns
Along my obsolete graveled
Road.

The auto rickshaw rolls on:
My bucolic 
Rocks
Mirth of a birth,
Rapturously.

The auto rickshaw passes by a
Nuptial hall :a
Bride
Stands in the splendor
Borrowed.

The auto rickshaw pauses before a
Rural maze :
My
Career  knocks get
Mocked.

The auto rickshaw, the three
Wheeled, creeps through the 
Nostalgia
Scenting textbooks 
New.

The auto rickshaw halts now
On a lap, 
For 
The road is lost in 
Fog.
