Yes, it sort of seems that way.. Maybe its a starting point of a race than the race itself :) Lovely thought in a thought provoking haiku!
very nice - and great perspective picture!
Oh, my goodness, Gemma! If school is a race, then I'm loosing it fast! I seem to be dragging through the days in a daze or haze! Thanks for your observation, though.
Nice school haiku - identity is a good theme!
Well said! I like that a lot :)
School alwasy does seem like ou are racing to get somewhere else - in Kindergarten they tell you, you have to do it this way in first grade - but don't let you wait until first grade - in Middle school they tell you this is how it's done in HS but don't let you wait until you're there. In HS they tell you this is how it's done in college... In college - the "real world" or grad school or med school. Racing forward always
So true things move so quickly, hard to imagine how we kept up when we were young it takes skill!
Great take on the prompt ...
The middle line says a lot, a place for moulding our future selves!!
