School - the best time of the year

I really enjoyed my first blog hop/blogfest yesterday! I'm still going around to collect all my data like the nerdy little mathematician I am - I <3 #s! And if you were a little late, you will still be viewed and counted, don't worry!

Tomorrow I have something old and something new - but no borrowed or blue, I'm already married, thank you!

Today I have this week's Sensational Haiku Wednesday, with one of my favorite themes: School!


 
School

More than books and desks
Memories are created
Friends connect for life


Teachers

A teacher conducts
the melody of knowledge
for students to sing

Life

In the school of life
we learn from experience
students forever

As a teacher, I deeply appreciate your second haiku. I especially like to envision myself as a conductor of students singing! Thank you so much!

I was a teacher, and I absolutely adore your second haiku! The third one rings very true to me as well. Well done on all of them!

Nice haiku - I especially liked the last one!

Cathy said...

Love the haiku. Those are not easy to write, I seriously respect your talent.

AND ... great party! I had fun checking out all the blogs and the best part is no clean up and no extra sit-ups to counter act all that amazing food! Until I start making the recipes that is ;)

Lovely. I so don't get poetry, how to write it. Well, limericks I can do. I guess my brain is just prosy. =D

Heather M. Gardner said...

I can't wait to get his kid back to school.

I liked that. We are students forever, constantly learning and changing. :)

These are all really great. I'm especially drawn to the second haiku on teachers, I think the melody and sing are just perfect, but then I look at school and think "yes!!" and look at life and think "So true!!" and realize that really I love them all.

Well done. :)

Hey Tara. What great talent you have. Haiku are extremely difficult to write. Love the third one especially, but flows logically from the first two.

Hey fellow Bloggy McBLoggerson!

It's a pleasure to read your posts, Tara. I have to admit, I'm a little intimidated by your math teacher abilities, because I divorced math, but I give you all the respect in the world for being a woman both of numbers and of words!

Greetings, fellow campaigner!

Nice! I'd say you're a far better poet than me, but burnt toast could do a better job than me.

What lovely haiku. it brings to mind so many memories. I used to miss going back to school. Not so much anymore. :)

I love the last one best! When we stop learning our brains start to die.

Tara Tyler said...

Cathy, you're so sweet. the party needed more music and drinking, i think!

Donna, a pretty pocket full of prosey!

Heather, aww you're just sayin that =)

Laila, thanks! i just met a cute husky puppy named Laila.

Alana, you crack me up! glad you made it to the party!

Allie, thanks! and I followed you back =)

Rancer-the Ranceman!, math is nothing to be intimidated by, agents are!

Alex, toast is good, with butter? better, and then there's jam!

it is a connection for life with friends for some with their teachers and with the knowledge they pass on!

Jenn @ Youknow...that Blog? said...

All three are terrific - what a great prompt for the teachers in our group, yes?! I think I love the second most.

Well done; thanks for joining us!

I really like your Haiku's this week, especially the teacher one. I had fun checking out the other blogfest blogs.

Very expressive haikus. Enjoyed them.

enjoyed all three ... the flow from students to teachers to life was a clever way to handle the prompt!
