"SaY" it with a poem: The Punishment Corner
The talented Ms. Doshi (Mehek)
We are no longer forsaken…
Nature now cries her deafening song
The teacher’s punishment corner is where we are at,
To contemplate on all our wrongs
Time is a thief
He flies as quick as lightning
Today we must ignite as one
And undo the errors said and done
Stop polluting, no more ruthless wars
We must understand earth can take it no more
No global warming, no recoiling terror
Only peace and quiet as we rethink the reflection in the mirror
Mistakes are understood when taught a lesson
And guess what? We are learning it now.
