Classroom

 

Every day she stands at the chalkboard

and wanders out to the edge of her knowledge.

Eager faces fill the room -

wondering about that next step.

 

Small particles of truth drift to the floor

as the chalk only scratches the surface.


Just beyond the window a summer’s day

smiles upon the playground - knowing

the one face in the room with all the answers

ticks towards another winter.
