I'm so glad there are teachers like you!

Your poem is very good. It reminds me of the art of the Dhamma teachings of Buddhists, which is expressed in the repetition of terms. Through permanent repetition, only in a slightly altered rhythm, lies a great effect of anchoring a message. Moreover, the teachings also come from this as a logical chain, at the beginning of which there is often the end of a term from the previous one.

Great that you let your students hear Alan Watts. He himself once told about young students whom he had asked: "What is a thing?" And after the majority of the students had called adjectives, a nine-year-old said, "A thing is a noun." You immediately understand what is meant, don't you? I was stunned that a girl expressed this and at the same time sad because I know that many people at that age are already so adapted and have suppressed their creativity. And only want to please the teacher by giving "right" answers.

But because teaching is not the imparting of knowledge, but relationship, the relationship is the first thing that matters and only then is knowledge.
