My life as an English Teacher

I go to class with hope
and spring in my steps
"good morning class"
"good morning mam", the class screams back
"homework?" I ask
And the volume reduces noticeably...
"Mam, I did not understand the assignment", says one
"I did not find my copy", says another
I will not get angry, I tell myself
and calmly proceed.
"Point out the adverb of manner", I say
"Jumped", replies Bornil,confident and smart.
Now my temperature's rising
I can clearly feel my face going red.
I repeat the question
"Honey", answers Trishita this time, demure and sweet
My mood's off by now
The spring's gone long ago...
I delve again into parts of speech.
