Quarantine Teaching

 

Living room, dining room,

gallery, breaking room,

Webex or ZOOM.

Talking to whom?

 

Bathroom or storeroom,

sunroom or cloakroom.

Never assume

that a restroom

or a balroom

can’t be a classroom.

 

Any room is

a good room

for knowledge to bloom.

 

Monday or Wednesday,

Thursday or Blursday

Every day’s a schoolday.

Except for Sunday

which will be a fun day

again someday

once this goes away.

 

 

Miss Homphone

 

Miss Homophone ate

eight oranges

and a pair of pears.

 

And with a brisk gait

she walked through the gate,

got into her car

and rode down the road.

 

This scene I have seen,

but I’m not allowed to say this aloud.
