School Begins


the weather changes rapidly
as children go off to school
their leisurely life now vapidly
excused from their plans of cool
no swimming in the ebbing tide
the games that held their full attention
now they want to run and hide
not give their studies their full retention
but then the bus comes roaring along
they find ways to play and cheer
they share what they know of dance and song
and this is but the beginning of the year
school builds friendships, mental wit,
and reading skills so they can twit
