Awake at four ten
Dress rehearsal in my head
I still love to teach.
Dress rehearsal in my head
I still love to teach.
Bonus
On that humid night
the Eagles up by seven
my hand first found yours.
Notes
The first poem is a true story. I was up at four in the morning thinking about today's lesson and writing poems in my head to use as models in class. Then I thought I must still love teaching if I'm awake thinking about it. The bonus poem is the one I wrote to use as a model for students today. Two haikus for the price of one! Although, technically, all my poems are for the price of one, since the price is zero.
