English Class

Sitting down
my desk, she creaks
chat with Lu,
the teacher speaks.

"Open your books,
let's read some Thoreau,"
The pages are dusty
like new fallen snow.

Oh how I love Walden,
Spring and Brute Neighbors,
words drip like honey,
with a sugar sweet nature.

Oh, these words I do love,
prose is nothing to fear!
Some people dislike them,
but to me it is dear!

  1. Ha, I completely agree! I really dug the line "words drip like honey."
