This is the not-yet period.
September still adumbrates;
But school is in session
in my head.
The anticipation grows.
The need-or-want
purchase of supplies.
The annual potential
of that have-to-get
item that will make
classroom life easier.
Sometimes, it does.
Decor decisions.
To theme or not to theme.
The toppling pile(s)
of picture and chapter
books and more books
such guilty-lovely finds,
bursting to be introduced.
The whirling, spinning of ideas;
evolving strategies;
adrenalined new thinking
to share and explore.
The excitement of
reflecting back
so to be transformed;
To go forward anew
and begin again.
The rush of back-to-school.
