Prompt ~ Harken back to your grade school days and write a haiku.
Pining for mums lap
to distractions of the play
facts nailed in our heads
########
Now for a rant _ _ _ _
Childhood lost in books
a b c and the zeros
frivolous pundits

This weekend we are asking you to play around with the following quote:
Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind.
–Henry James

Fact nailed in our heads! That’s exactly how I felt!!
Thanks for identifying with my experience. 🙂
Yes… that is one way to see child hood… the other alternative is
guidance lost
facts are lost to theories
of dissipation
Thanks for the other perspective 🙂
This is what I wished for when young…love the rant as well…good job YP
Thank you 🙂
So many nails in my head-the facts just fell out of all of the holes;) Retention was never my strong point!
Excellent work!!
I had great trouble retaining facts too.
Thank you, Valerie 🙂
I loved school… should I admit to that?! Great haikus…
I too loved parts of it, especially the delicious bun kebabs from the canteen.
Thank you for the visit and comment 🙂
A good teacher can expand your senses and make you believe all things are magical and possible. A poor teacher can sap your soul dry. Sorry you had the latter, as teachers.
True. In later life I had some of the other variety.
Thanks for the interest.
facts nailed in our heads – so true!
Thanks for the visit and comment 🙂
I’m with everyone else, ‘ the nails in our heads’ rang with such truth
Thanks for the visit 🙂
Love the haikus.
As to the facts nailed into your head… I wonder where they nailed mine?
Thank you.
Only a few nails remain now 🙂
Education has come a long way–in some places. Thanks for linking up with Trifecta this weekend.
It sure has, very little cramming nowadays.
Thanks for the visit.
wonder is they pine for mom’s lap anymore…gud thinking for a Haiku..
I am sure they still do in the beginning.
Thanks for the visit 🙂
Learning- really learning- is so much for than cramming facts and taking tests.
So true. It is more of perceiving.
Thanks for the visit, Jannat 🙂
Nice Haiku, remembering my school days.
