A Tanka for all the disheartened teachers out there…

They turned up the heat
My to-do lists are insane!
I am so confused!
What should I concentrate on?
Ticking ‘boxes’ or children?Ritu 2017
And a HAiku for all you Mid-life ladies… I’m nearing there too!

All hot and flustered
These turns are confusing me
Am I young or old?Ritu 2017

Leave it in God’s hands
Some say our fate is destiny,
I say, we write it!

On that fateful day
I made some awful cup cakes
Ugly but tasty!

A tanka was born!
