Straight As in love (poem)

The emphasis is on education we must develop the mind

Politicians proclaim,- we shall leave no child shall be left behind

 

Within four walls children are taught the importance of intelligence

With a high I.Q. - socially one gains highly respected acceptance

They study, they study, read their books through and through

Gaining knowledge of the system making sense of all the pooh

Their courses include a journey - way back in time

Where they claim we got our start from swinging from a vine

In biology class they learn all the functions of the heart

Excluding the love - not detected on their study chart

Psychology is required a course they must pass

For it explains in detail all the makings of an ass

I was never on top of my class when it came learning the rules

But I made straight A’s in love,- an art not taught in our schools

Well, David, it seems that the course you had gotten straight A's in is the one that matters! I, too, wasn't too good in the academics, actually I was bored in school.... Thanks for a marvelous poem!

David, We have to have a talk about this psychology thing. lol. Very nice poem. I never learned how to parent or fix sump pumps in school. Don't you think those would be good courses?
