What English Demands Poem by Scott Stanley Davis

Whitson, a teacher of English demands. She stands five feet something but this she commands. It's not the tallness of people I stand, but it's about teaching what English demands. She toils through bundles of essays each day, thousands of emails from students who daresay; English the language, that's all it should say! Mrs. Whitson the teacher we're writing English this way. She smiles so softly her eyes do display twinkling, shining, as one of them say, these students I wonder, will they today, be writing in English, what English should say. She shies from loud voices that come by her way, up and down the aisle of students each way. Blackboard and computer technology displays, trying to say it, in English, what the English should say. The semester near over each student hooray, now can in writing, what English should say. Mrs. Whitson now smiling they're finally okay. Mrs. Whitson a teacher of English commands; she stands five feet something, but this she demands, it's not the tallness of people I stand, but it's about teaching what English commands.
