This is my Corner, No entry- It is My Space
“Not anymore, Ma” they laugh in My Face!
My laptop/ my baby on which I design and write…
“I won’t share
with you both!” I hopelessly fight.
The Class begins at sharp Nine!
“Wake Up” we scream, you need to be “Online”
The teacher sends a link, we join on ZOOM!
Oh My God, I realize! They can see my Room…..
Scrambling to clear up the mess- toys, clothes,
Within seconds- “kapoot” the video goes!
Log in, log out, repeatedly we try
Completely bewildered my son and I.
The phone rings- others as perplexed, “Thank God!”
Technicalities solved, school prayer begins-“Praise
the Lord!”
“Mute/Unmute”, unmute and again mute – Is this a Game?
“Shhhh, Ma- I must speak only when ma’am calls my Name”.
The story gets better as the younger one takes her
seat
She feels like a queen, she’s got her hands on my Tablet.
“Don’t drop it”, “Be careful”, “It’s not a TOY”!
Wipe the sweat on my forehead -feel I’ve run a mile-
“Oh Boy”!
Assignments posted on Google Classroom- What’s THAT?
Figuring out this takes a while- when it’s done I pat
my back.
“Bye Bye” says the Teacher- they are done for the Day!
See you all tomorrow -Virtual Reality it’s here to stay!!
