| Pleasure found: read immediately. |
Just a sub -
not denigrating my job
but, knowing what teachers do
"I'm just a sub," I say.
Some days working the library
(Better said, being with books)
I remember.
Remember
the thrill of thinking
creating a new unit.
Children's books
poetry posters from photos
Book reviews:
in paragraph and poetry posters.
Always writing but not an
("Aw, do we have to?")
essay.
I remember what I did
and (only sometimes)
wish for it again.
| A gift for another day. |
The Thrill of Thinking
