Non sequitur haikus

[MROO]

Latin’s intriguing,
but why must we travel through
class at breakneck pace?

It's a "dead" language.
Perhaps class must be dismissed
'ere rigor mortis?

 

[CombNWattles]

It's a "dead" language.
Perhaps class must be dismissed
'ere rigor mortis?

Perhaps…
My great-uncle taught me this rhyme:
‘Latin is a dead language,
As dead as dead can be.
It killed off all the Romans,
And now it’s killing me.’

I might have to get to class early and write that on the blackboard someday…

Many of our words
Are based on Latin today.
Understanding helps!

 

[tranquiliti]

Amō Latinam!
I only took two years’ worth,
But loved what I learned.

 

[BigBlueHen53]

How's your cardio?
Your gastro, and skeletals?
Doctors speak Latin!

 

[Sally PB]

Been trying to learn
Latin from a book this year.
Stalled; need a big push.

Class would be better
For me; fear of failure looms
Too large in my brain.

After the garden
Is done, I will have no more
Excuses to slack!

 

[BigBlueHen53]

Latin from a book?
That sounds hard to me, also!
Rosetta maybe?

Do not fear failure!
If you do not succeed, think:
I tried, learned, and grew!

Life is a series
Of "failures." Isn't that how
We all learned to walk?

 

[MROO]

We don't have failures.
Mistakes have another name.
We call them "Learnings!"

 

[BigBlueHen53]

We don't have failures.
Mistakes have another name.
We call them "Learnings!"

Thank you, you said it
So much better than I did!
But that's what I meant.
