A day at the beach!
No teachers to teach.
No English, no Science,
No Math within reach.
The sun on my face,
The sand in my toes,
The smell of the salty
Blue sea in my nose.
No homework to do,
No quizzes to pass,
No trying to stay
Awake during class.
Just me and the waves,
A cold drink in my hand,
I lay on a towel
And sleep on the sand.
But soon I wake up,
I'm in my own bed.
Reality hits me
Then fills me with dread.
No beach day today.
No waves and no sun.
Another school day
Has already begun.
