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

  1. 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!

  5. 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 ;)

  9. 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. :)

  10. 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.

  11. 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!

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