English Teacher
Petite, white-haired Miss CartwrightKnew Shakespeare off by heart,Or so we pupils thought.Once in the stalls at the Old VicShe prompted Lear when he forgot his part.
Ignorant of Scrutiny and Leavis,She taught Romantic poetry,Dreamt of gossip with dead poets.To an amazed sixth form once said:‘How good to spend a night with Shelley.’
In long war years she fed us plays,Sophocles to Shaw’s St Joan.Her reading nights we named our Courting Club,Yet always through the blacked-out streetsOne boy left the girls and saw her home.
When she closed her eyes and chanted‘Ode to a Nightingale’We laughed yet honoured her devotion.We knew the man she should have marriedWas killed at Passchendaele.
