Since i teach class 3 kids, i get to read a lot of kiddy poems n stories. its usually those silly (shudnt call them silly...they r written by the most famous child poets!), sweet, rhyming poems. its good fun to read them n the kids enjoy them too. but today i came across such a beautiful poem. it was a kiddy poem, but i felt it was very deep. its a pity i had to teach it to the kids, who really do not know how to appreciate poetry. they only read poetry on the surface n never get into analysing them. i wish i taught older students, say class 10 or 11. it wud b so amazing to have them analyse the poem...
poetry has always been my weakness and i loved it all through in school in college. after school n college i never thought i would get to appreciate it as much. suddenly i feel discontented wit my job...i cannot remain teaching 8 yr olds. though its a great n an amazing experience every single day, i want a teaching job thats more challenging.
let me see what i can do about it......

yes, maybe an mba is a good idea, or something more on the creative side?
i'm sure u can come up with something. maybe teaching kids might satisfy ur philosophical side when u are much older...!
