School Days Poem by Jovial Routray

Everyone says rules are not meant to be broken
But rules don't let people be open
They feel afraid to express their views
And on being asked they simply refuse
Most of the time the rules are senseless
And as a fact I know most of the people in our class think long nails are useless
It is considered more important to be properly dressed
But teachers only need to see our academic abilities to be impressed
Violence is something which every school hates
But no one cares once the students are out of the gates
For the teachers to teach silence is a must
Unfortunately that is when our mind has an upwards thrust
Then we start daydreaming
Which is a cue for the teacher to start screaming
We should be told to keep our classroom clean not for some award
Rather should be explained that by doing so we get good hygiene as a reward
Metal bottle is one of the many things that is illegal
As it has proved that it can be lethal
There is a change in season and whilst everyone welcomes winter
Blazer, sweater and tie come out which make our mornings bitter
The top button makes us look smart but makes us feel suffocating
Of all the things this is the most irritating
By now we are used to it
Showing we have somewhat developed in terms of our wit
