T'was the Night Before School

Twas 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
when memories of homework
filled them with dread.

New pencils, new folders, new notebooks too,
new teachers, new friends, the anxiety grew.
The parents just giggled when they heard of this frightand shouted upstairs-GO TO BED-IT'S A SCHOOL NIGHT!


Happy Back to School Everyone!
