Poems of Silliness

Game Point
Lobbed over net
I am the leading player
My opponent can't return this
I scored the winning point.

I can't believe it!

You are a legal adult

It happened so fast

Eighteen years ago today

Happy Birthday, Monika!

Sitting in my class
I'm staring out the window
Still really summer

Returning to school

The start of another year

Ready to begin

I must build back endurance

Teachers are tired as well.

Beginning to set
My alarm clock once again.
No more sleeping in.

Labor
Almost always
Brings
On
Rest

Day off
At least once a
Year

New rules and routines
New faces and names
A year older
A grade higher
A bit smarter
A new school year ready to begin.
