Last Day Of School Poem by Francie Lynch

School commencements looming;
Convocations blooming.
Graduating from room to room
On this last day in June.

From womb to pre-school
Kids migrate,
To elementary/high school dissipate;
Trade schools, colleges,
And universities await,
Punch the clock at the workplace gate.
Summer vacation helps make the break.
But make no mistake,
The last day of school is just for show,
I hope they're schooled enough to know.
'The last day of school' is just a term
Rightly debunked during life's sojourn:
Ahead there's still life-long learning.
