Ryan Gayagay Poet Rhyme

School Things--Nursery Rhyme

I love my school things:

Crayons, ruler, and pad paper, 
Glue, sharpener, and eraser;
Pens and pencils in a tin box 
That need not close with any locks. 

Some pocket money makes me smile--
To buy a gum to share with Kyle.
Notebooks with pictures on the cover 
Of my idols--like Justin Bieber!

Oh, wait, there’s one thing I forgot--
The lunchbox which Mom newly bought.
And where to place all of this stuff?
In my school bag, there’s space enough!
