First Day Poem by krishna kumar

New shoes and new uniforms were bought
The slate and books were brought
I was happy in going to the school
As I thought it would be so cool

Hearing this my neighbour families exhausted in relief
Because it was something harder for their belief
I said I would neither cry nor shout
And told them not to have any doubt

I said for me going to the school was casual
But, on reaching the school I found the place unusual
After seeing the teacher coming my near
I started sobbing and screaming in fear
