What Did You Learn at School Today (poem)
Are you wondering about the poetry I am writing during National Poetry Month?
Here’s my latest:
What Did You Learn at School Today
“Quote or paraphrase
The classics
And the women
Will fall at your feet,”
I was told
So I approached
The redhead
On the cheerleader squad
And told her
“Even as a cow
You’re lovely.”
Her fist
Told me either
She wasn’t fond
Of Ovid
Or perhaps
I could have
Paraphrased it differently.

April is National Poetry Month
This year for National Poetry Month, I am once again going to attempt to write 30 poems in 30 days. However, I’m not likely to post all of them.
There will be a poem posted every day of April at Generations of Poety – The eZine for Genealogists. None of these poems will have been written by me, but they will all have been selected by me, as I am the editor of this new poetry e-zine.
