Rain Dream

The rain is ending
Or has it just begun?
No, don't ask the wind
He whistles wrong answers
The sun will rise again,
but first we wait
And listen
Drip. Drop. Dream.

La Canción de Pingüinos

The Penguin Song is something I picked up during my theater days in college. It's one of my favorite exercises and, now, I use it both in and outside the classroom. Here's a video of me teaching the song to teachers and my Peace Corps boss, Dr. Rolando Barillas! He's the one in the blue/white striped polo haha

The Hammock Diaries

Suicidal insects feed the floor

Boy in hammock stops and stares

one blink, two blinks...

Gone
