My First Day

See me skip.
See me run.
I’m going to school like everyone.
See me walk.
See me grin.
When the bell goes, I go in.
See me jump.
See me play.
I’m in Grade One, hooray!




Hello everybody, how do you do?
How do you do? How do you do?

T'was the night before school started
When all through the town
The parents were cheering
It was a riotous sound!
By eight the kids were washed
And tucked into bed,
While memories of homework
Filled them with dread.
New pencils, new folders,
New notebooks, too,
New teachers, new friends,
Their anxiety grew.
The parents just giggled
When they learned of this fright,
And shouted upstairs -
GO TO BED!
IT'S A SCHOOL NIGHT
