We were delighted by “yertle,” a former high school teacher who chose DonorsChoose.org as the subject of her Haiku Friday post:
am so far behind
in reading and in writing
so overwhelminghard to jump back in
both with life and with blogging
don’t know where to starta new addiction
check out DonorsChoose.org
I can’t stop givingfunded 5 projects
supporting math and science
helping feels so good
One of our Ops staff wrote, “I guess a sense of rueful contemplation and references to the wind rustling through the cherry blossoms aren’t requirements for haikus? Good to know.”
Inspired by yertle’s example, I composed this haiku, written from the perspective of a DonorsChoose.org teacher. Apologies to Basho.
I got an email:
My project has been funded.
Bliss overwhelms me.
Feel free to leave your own DonorsChoose.org haiku in the comments.
