I Am Yelling Uncle
We have not had a full week at school for seven weeks.
Our students are pumped, not realizing maybe...
We will be going to school until the cows come home.
Yes, I know it is an Iowa expression,
Being from Iowa, I feel I can use it. Moo. Moo.
I am doing my mooing now,
Because in the summer, I imagine I will not feel mooing.
There will be no joy at all....
When we are stuck in school
Two weeks after the date we thought we were getting out.
Come on, ice, sleet and snow.
Listen up Jack Frost.
Please cancel next Saturday's snow.
I am yelling “Uncle!”
Enough already.
