As I sit in this classroom Listening to keys clattering Pencils clicking Feet tapping Pages flipping Shuffling feet Creaking seat Faint ac, or is that the heater? Such is unknown to me For it is all overwhelming Things so small Yet so impacting. Then, from outside Chatter of children Wind whispering my very name Calling me to the freedom of the outdoors A plane overhead Announcing its presence Clicking of a mouse A pencil dropping People adjusting in their seats Drinking water Back to work The tap of a foot The shuffle of paper Pages turning Legs shifting positions Another plane overhead And all the while, Here I wonder, While pages are turning; What am I learning? - Jay M November 22nd, 2019

Never can I focus during a test - unless 'tis on the surrounding sounds.
