Saturday School

Five days a week I get out of bed holler, "Get UP!!" Get your book bag; brush your teeth! Saturday I say no alarm, no calls just sawing logs! Yellow paper placed in my hands Upset my world and brought a frown around When did Saturday become a school day? No sleepy naps, no snuggly huggly Set the alarm and go to school! Saturday school!! . __________ . / \ . / /_\ \ | | | __ | | / \ | | ______| |_____| ___

Intriguing write here, Doris. Sounds like some sort of punishment? An extra day's school would have sure punished me. And you've drawn the school house too
