First Day At School

THE FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL I was three and half Enjoying my smile and my laugh But then my father came Telling me to play a game A game in which i should hide Inside a building that was beside I asked him hide and seek He told me no and not to sneak I was excited to play it along I was dressed up for so long In White shirt and blue shorts Hanging hanky and a bag on slots I was jumping to play that game So excited I never became took out bicycle to drove me there Hundreds in the same dress crying every where I asked him scared how will you find me He said I need to plan and see I went in with a smiling face Not knowing the future phase One hour was easy to survive When I saw some people arrive Same one's I saw them at the gate Some were early and some coming late My heart started to pump And my tears coming in lump I thought the game is over my father to find me a little slower I started crying they won't be able to find And I will be stuck here to grind I cried and cried , for the whole day Everybody trying to make me quite in their own way At last when a strange bell was out Teachers in the room gave a shout To go the gate where we came Then I thought now it's the end of the game I saw my father standing Outside to look for me constantly bending I ran up to him to hug him tight And kept hitting him like it was a fight I said crying I don't wanna play this game of yours It's better we play you as the horse He took me into his arms And I was back to the calms At night he was lying beside me I was asleep to see He saw me weeping And then he started his speaking He said the game we played is called schooling I said it as a game, I was fooling The building you went in is a school And there I made you another fool The rooms you sat in are classes This is an important phase that passes It's a game of learning Which all values you should be earning He caressed his hand on my hair And told me to sleep with a care First day at school I still recall This was the most important day in my life after all
