School
Biljana Vukovic

High school memories
The morning buzz of conversation
The friends and cliques
Overpowering the education

The youth, the fun
The smell of the rain
Splashing puddles on the teacher
Detention again

The ring of the bell
Hurried footsteps out of class
Shoving in the canteen line
The food’s lousy if you’re last

The energy and excitement
The gossip and silly rhymes
Brings a smile to your face
Reflecting on good times
