Sadly, more and more true. I cringe when I see flyers or newsletters released to parents or the press. Your spelling is better than theirs. I would see this as more of a Senryu and comment on education. Best of luck!

I liked the inventiveness of this poem. It is a successful joke, although I'm not sure it accords with the sentiment expressed in your notes! There is a highly effective alignment of the content and style with the jokey intent of the poem that makes it work. Well done! This deserves to do well in the contest.

Ha - funny one. You did a great job of satirical humor in this 5-7-5 poem. I can only hope all the tichers are not like this or our kids are in trouble! Good luck in the contest.

    Thank you Leslie, no teachers are not like that, this is just a joke. Thank you for the review.

This is the truth here, that many kids can no longer spell very well. Teachers are doing all they can, but have much to compete with. Clever 5-7-5. Good luck to you, Jeanie Mercer

So clever, it was fascinating to read, almost teasing my mind,whilst reading it.
It was subtle and brilliant. Good luck to you.

Good luck in the contest.

No offense taken. I enjoyed your humorous 5/7/5. Good job on the format--the correct syllables.

I see no changes. Thanks for the notes.

Best wishes in the contest.

This one made me smile. Unfortunately, it can be closer to the truth than is comfortable. Very well done.
All the best in the contest. :)

Well done! I too am a teacher. Fortunately I teach a group of students who have an excellent capacity to read, write, and "math". I truly enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing.
