School Poem

I quickly look at the clock,

The hands show 7:01.

I frantically slip on my socks,

but my homework is still not done.

In the school bus I check my pockets,

Only to discover my wallet was not there,

No matter where I looked, it was nowhere to be seen,

It was as if it vanished into thin air.

In school the teacher asked me a question,

I found it impossible to reply,

She stood up, an angry face showed,

I was instructed to go outside.

Sometimes I wonder what its like,

If I lived a life without school,

I would have all the time in the world,

I could take a dip in the pool.
