Lines
I tried to make a cursive h
(If we know what cursive is
I hear it’s no longer taught
In school)
Anyway (my rant set aside),
I failed to get it right and,
In my attempt to
Write it right,
I saw what makes the letter
A circle, more an oval
Straight line descending
At an angle, then upon
A simple arch
Those three shapes
Make this alphanumeric
Contribution
Such plain things make up
The world
Lines are bent or remain
Straight, all to recommend
How Earth might be
By keepers and expressers
Who delight with beauty in
Design

I love cursive!! An art that is slowly disappearing I am afraid.

Yes, what’s up with that? Someone told me that signatures are taught and nothing else. Sigh.

I’m happy you know cursive. I’m having a hard time realizing it’s a disappearing skill.
