This is happening so much these days to so many experienced educators, it's... infuriating and sad, everyone loses so much (especially the students).<br /><br />Enzo's tale sounds like a story I would love to read. So, I shall keep my eye sharp. And yay! for getting back to gardening!

The wonderful dove haiku are self-explanatory, I think, not intellectually so much as sensually, needing no further analysis. Oh, to write haiku like that! Thank you, Sherry, for finally getting her to agree.
