A Different Era

Autoplay

In the fourth grade
too many moons ago
a reassuring teacher
looked over my shoulder
and said not to worry about
some mistake on my paper.
She said that's why
we have erasers.

Now a teacher assures
my grandson
in the same grade
not to worry
about his mistake.
She tells him that's
why we have
a delete key.
