First Day of School
Lunches are packed.
Backpacks are at the door.
Pencils are sharp.
What are you waiting for?
Time to see your friends, old and new
Tales of summer happenings are waiting
Sharing routines, schedules and books,
It is now time for creating!
Testing your math, grammar and science
will seem trying at first
but with a little time
in all subjects you will become well versed.
The clock always rings at dawn
Being up early is always a fuss
It's the First Day of School
Now hurry up or you'll miss your bus!

Great poem - I remember those back to school days so much excitement and anticipation.
ReplyDeleteHappy First Day of School :) I saw your comment on RLWK and you made me laugh - had to come visit. Glad I did!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jade! We survived the first day!
ReplyDeleteAmber so glad you stopped by for a visit! We still laugh about that to this day!!! Haha!
I like your poem. It is cute!
ReplyDeleteMy son is too young for school but today while I was driving through town I saw two cute girls crossing the street. They CLEARLY had on new school clothes, new backpaks and were huddled together giggling.
ReplyDeleteIt really took me back. I LOVED the smell of new school clothes and used to stay up organizing my binders and backpak!
