FIRST DAY

Smells of new notebooks being opened,
Crayons breaking in for the first time,
Backpacks hushing by with each large leap,
Textbook spines cracking for the first time,
Pencil sharpeners twirling away,

May all my teacher friends near and far,
Set off the first day with great splendor.
May you be blessed with patience and love,
Stamina and tolerance to brighten
Our future’s minds with wisdom to grow
And be tomorrow's next great leaders.
