First Day Poem

First Day

Beep! Beep!
My alarm sounds.
Waking up at six isn’t what I planned!

Silence in the morning.
I’m the only one walking around.

Taking the bus is the only familiar thing.
Then, after that, it’s all new to me!

Walking around the halls
with a backpack on.
There are older kids, not younger kids that I can’t pick on.

Eating at a different time
is something I have to get used to.
IPods are allowed, that is something new!

Ding! goes the bell.
One more class down.
Why don’t I ever see my friends?

Tennis is the next big thing.
After school every day.
The ball goes “pop”,
and WHAM over the net!

Long night of homework
and before I know it, I hear the BEEP! Again.
