I visited a class of second graders to teach them about poetry, and this is a poem one student wrote.

What is Life?

My name is Marisa.
Today I feel like a wealthy lioness prancing in the fields.
Sometimes I am a fox.
Sometimes I am a wolf.
But always I am loyal.
I ask the world, "What is life?"
And the answer is
a wealthy lioness prancing in the fields.

@nathaliejacoby1 Teachers. First and foremost. Then nurses and cops. If you raise the pay of the first and second, they will get what they have always deserved. If you raise the pay of the third, you will get the cops we deserve. And yes, there are exceptions so for all great officers, thank you.
