Teachers' Meeting

Each morning, quite predictably
he's ready with a smiling edict:
"Have a marvelous Monday!"
And so it goes. We know the words
by now: Terrific Tuesday.
Wonderful Wednesday.
Thrilling Thursday.
"Have a fantastic Friday!"
And we do, not just because he
said to and we're somewhat obligated
to obey, but somehow, it just
seems to work that way.
He's smart to start us on the positive,
preemptive strike against the
challenges we'll face
(we hope) with wisdom
and with grace.
