Albert's Poetry Caf� challenge - word: HANDBOOK - a poem no longer than 24 lines

 

Yesterday: meetings after school

 

- I hate those meetings

Square people full of themselves

Trying to rule over creative people

 

Today: study the new law

About children’s rights

 

- Well, it is necessary

To make a good pamphlet

Hoping something will change

For the better

 

Tomorrow: nothing written

 

- Could I invent?

A dream to fill up this page…

 

...

 

 

Tomorrow we have passed

An eternity holding hands

And you where smiling

Opening a door to a future!

[Salvatore Buttaci]

As a former teacher, I can relate quite well to your good poem! I love the way you divided the poem into three chronological parts. It reminded me of the three parts in the plan book: Objective, Procedure, and Assignment.

Thanks for entering the "Handbook challenge."
