Home Schooling
Home Schooling
I’m at my daughters house today
on home schooling duties by the way.
Delivering P E to grandson Marcus
who can do his exercises without fuss
But prefers to test my teaching skills
by reverting to his tablet thrills
This compromise is really fun
he does the exercises, every one
while playing with the dog and some
rounds of UNO games are done
But Marcus is a cunning lad
so wise beyond his six years had
He won all the card games not by chance
but a merry dance led, to his grandad.
