Today is the first day of school.
I wonder who I will meet. I hope
my teacher is nice and assigns me
a comfortable seat.
I wonder if the other kids are as
nervous as I; but more importantly,
we become friends, and that they
are kind.
So easy to make fun of others' faults;
much harder to accept them for who
they are; differences and all.
Can't wait to share all they teach us,
and eat that yummy lunch right after
recess.
When Mom comes to pick me up; I
will tell her what I learned...
...and the many adventures I have had;
like the extra cookie I snuck
during lunchtime, that I placed
in my bag.
Can't wait to go back tomorrow but for
now...I'm happy to be home.
Watch cartoons, play with my brother...
just enjoy my family.
Tonight, I'll take a bubble bath
with lots of foam.
It's great to be a kid!

What a delightful write from the perspective of a kid. The little joys that make for a good day and the things to look forward too. They are soon to change as one grows to other things. Nicely done
Michael, this one was just fun to read. School, recess, cartoons, bubble bath…you really dropped me back into childhood for a minute. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️
