-school's Back- Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

-SCHOOL'S BACK-

Twas once upon a mid-fall's day
With new clothing, worn in great display
And brand new shoes so shiny there
A Brush run through my long brown hair.

Excitement now runs right through me
First day of school, I face with glee.
So shining new is everything
And to my heart does new knowledge sing.

How much of life I'm learning now
Each day, in Wisdom, you show me how.
God given knowledge to me enrich
That I might find my Earthly niche.

Enhancing all that I have learned
All the knowledge for which I yearned
And magnify in spirits soul
This strength You gave me to extol.

Now as I age....This Earth endure
My mind, in reason, so unsure.
Each thing I've learned, I give to You
As in Thy wisdom, You told me to.
