School's out for the summer!
It's a song so often sung,
No more homework,
No more backaches from loads of books!
Summer has arrived!
Time for sleeping-in late,
Daydreaming while riding bikes,
Daydreaming during nature hikes.
Kindergarten was so easy for her,
The painting, the colors, the play,
First grade was more rewarding,
First reading, writing, and now 'rithmetic.
What shall second grade bring?
Writing reports and creating science projects?
What vast knowledge will this sponge-mind soak up?
What vast interests will be sparked by imagination?
Who will be her teacher? Who will be her friend?
Who will play with her at recess?
Who will help her relax once her school day ends?
Enough of wondering about next year!
This summer, remember!
Now she shall sleep-in late,
And visit aunties and uncles for summer-time exploration.
Aunties open up doors that moms
Don't have time to unlock,
Uncles open up windows that dads
Don't have arms enough to reach.
School is out for the summer!
She is relaxed and spreading her wings,
School is out for the summer!
If you listen closely...you'll hear her heart sing.
