Miss Kat: 2 more days of student teaching:

I’ve adopted storytime and any free moment as our science time (since I’m not teaching anything anymore I cherish these moments). The kids LOVE talking about animals!! We watched the panda cam again, looked at facts on Nat Geo, and read more of a “How Things Move” book ($1 from Target). Then I let…

Omg I’m crying this is beautiful.

98% sure my neighbor just threw a giant chunk if concrete off his 2nd story balcony. I don’t understand.

Edit: yep, and he just came and picked it up and now he’s doing push ups outside. Still don’t understand.

Sestina by Elizabeth Bishop

Thu, 14 Mar 2013 17:00:00 -0400

September rain falls on the house.

In the failing light, the old grandmother
sits in the kitchen with the child
beside the Little Marvel Stove,
reading the jokes from the almanac,
laughing and talking to hide her tears.

She thinks that her equinoctial tears
and the rain that beats on the roof of the house
were both foretold by the almanac,
but only known to a grandmother.
The iron kettle sings on the stove.
She cuts some bread and says to the child,

It’s time for tea now; but the child
is watching the teakettle’s small hard tears
dance like mad on the hot black stove,
the way the rain must dance on the house.
Tidying up, the old grandmother
hangs up the clever almanac

on its string. Birdlike, the almanac
hovers half open above the child,
hovers above the old grandmother
and her teacup full of dark brown tears.
She shivers and says she thinks the house
feels chilly, and puts more wood in the stove.

It was to be, says the Marvel Stove.
I know what I know, says the almanac.
With crayons the child draws a rigid house
and a winding pathway. Then the child
puts in a man with buttons like tears
and shows it proudly to the grandmother.

But secretly, while the grandmother
busies herself about the stove,
the little moons fall down like tears
from between the pages of the almanac
into the flower bed the child
has carefully placed in the front of the house.

Time to plant tears, says the almanac.
The grandmother sings to the marvelous stove
and the child draws another inscrutable house.

Believe in yourself.

I think I might just print this out and tape it to the inside of my lesson plan book, as daily inspiration to ~follow my dreams~

“I cannot recall what I started to tell you, but at least
I can say how night-long I have lain under the stars and
Heard mountains moan in their sleep.”
