School Is Out for the Summer

School Is Out for Summer
It has happened again
August has faded into October
We brought our suntaned bodies in from the swimming pools
We moved from our lazy day routine into another year of learning
October moves on to December
We bundle in our sweaters against colder weather
Halfway through the school year already
We move from review of the previous years studies
We make connections with new information
We begin, sometimes reluctently to explore new skills
At first a little clumsey we suprise ourselves with new accomplishments
We take a winter break,
Enjoy our families and friends
January brings new excitement as we anticipate the Spring
We confidently complete our task
We stride onto the stage of the spring play
We revel on the field of play
We toil in the classrooms trying to make an A
We March forward into April and then it is May
As we look back on the school year,
The face on the first day of school picture is unrecognizable
We are changed, we have grown physically and more
School is out for the summer
We rest ourselves to be ready for more.
