Poet Lady Katz: new forum reply to Chalk- Slate

New reply from Susan Katz

<p>Thank you so much for submitting your poem for consideration as Featured Poem of the Week.  I loved your concept – the memory is one that touches us all, I think.  Perhaps we have a memory of something different from childhood, but your poem will stir that memory – and touching people, moving people is what poetry is all about.  Good  job!  – Susan</p>

Chalk- Slate

<p><em>Chalk-Slate's memory is old</em><br /><em>Its story is related to childhood</em></p>
<p><em>Like Chalk, the teacher</em><br /><em>Finished themself</em><br /><em>By shedding the Ganges of knowledge</em><br /><em>Made us a good person</em></p>
<p><em>Have reconciled knowledge</em><br /><em>On our slate like mind</em><br /><em>How can one forget</em><br /><em>On the immense love of the Guru</em></p>
<p><em>Seeing the same chalk-slate again</em><br /><em>Freshens up forgotten memories</em><br /><em>Could not stop my heart</em><br /><em>So expressed my thoughts</em></p>
