#sol15 March 1 Pulse Racing, Game-Day Excited

"We're at the gate!"
Some have run this gauntlet before,

Some are newbies,

All are wondering if they will make it

To the finish line.

"Why not?"
It's possible

To let laundry pile a bit higher,

To let dust balls roll 

Without fear of the parked Shark,

Keeping your eyes on posts.

It's possible 
To squeeze more into each day.
To mine posts from commuting, care-giving,
From moments of marriage, mothering,
From snippets of teaching struggling readers, 
From glimpses of grad students, 
Who want to be great teachers.

Each March, we capture moments

With cursors

Share thoughts and ideas

With fellow Slicers
Every single day.

We're driven to write, 
Promise to respond, 
Committed to comment,
We're off 
To write like writers,

To remember what our students need.

Today is the day

Our cursors are waiting,
Be on your way!
(As Suess would say)
