Never in one day
have I seen
more people
over the age of 10
be
defensive
agitated
abrupt
unkind
assuming.
I tried to
fill buckets
stay calm
carry on
smile
but
it was
very hard.
I am thankful
for 2nd graders
who think leprechauns
"throw up rainbows"
and
"slide under doors"
"slide under doors"
to play tricks.
I'm so proud
of my
5th graders
who learned
from their peers
in class
how to work politely
in partners
thanks to their
classroom teacher.
Today
I wave
the white flag
of
surrender.
Tomorrow
I will try
again
to
stay calm
smile
carry on.
