School Days Poem by Michael Peterson

School days, school days
Where did the summer go?
The beaches, festivals and summer love
Time to get the backpacks ready
Time to move on to the next grade
See old friends, meet new ones
We all hate the first day, but love the last
No more sleeping late
Now all we have is due dates
Days of no work, now tons of homework
Study, study, study
All we dread is quizzes, but it's good for the wizes
No late hangouts, no more all niter's
Now we all worry about the fighters
We all dream for summer to come
One by one the days go by
When is there a holiday
School day, school days
Give me some school breaks
