Going back to school

Today I packed my schoolbag,
Put lots of stuff in there.
Some pencils, books and rulers, and
The glasses that I wear.

I'm going back on Thursday.
Gosh, that will be so soon!
Oh, those dreaded lessons
Late in the afternoon...

No more time to sleep,
(Except for R.E. class)
Homework, homework, homework,
And homework, oh, en masse!

I will spend my time wisely,
Cheat sheets I will create,
Especially for Latin,
The subject which I hate!

I'm only looking forward to
The time my school day ends,
I wish I'd only have to
Go there to see my friends!

Author notes

Thinking of school makes me either giggle uncontrollably or shake like a leaf, that's why I couldn't come up with a serious poem. I would only scare myself.

    Oh dear, I fear that these past weeks of school have you too snowed under to write any new poems. I am still sweating like a butcher making sure my erst klassler has everything she needs in her pack every day - it's so intimidating! We did the whole Schuletüte thing on Saturday. Well, I thought you LOVED Latin.

      Thank you for commenting!
      I'm too happy to write any poems right now (LOL), I need to be in the right mood to be able to write...
      Well, I loved Latin, and I still do, but I was so afraid of the teacher, I'm so glad we got a new one this year.
      I think I might write a poem about the Chernobyl catastrophe soon because I'll be writing my Seminarfacharbeit about it, which means I'll have to deal with the topic for about 1 1/2 years...

    There also rhymes with underwear and pair and stare HAHAHA

    Forgive me for my dreadful sense of humour, but we must try to gather up our smiles for AGAIN entering a school year and trying to laugh about it. Your poem is adorable and I want to post it onto Poetry Planet because it is so TRUE and perfectly penned. May I?
