I love the part about “ she needs an extra note in her name...”. Many great metaphors and I like the way you coin words.

I have to admit, I was entertained by this one, but the inspiration that brought forth and uplifting upbeat to your new language. I can imagine that when eyes spark for the teacher for the teaching it is inspiring to both. Beyond your outpouring of appreciative words, I enjoyed these lines: But one face has the range of an audience Ghostly-pensive or edgy-tired sometimes Yet ideas of mine keep quivering to life Whenever she beams that curious smile That keeps my words jumping to life Thanks for sharing Denis.
