First Day of High School
First start, first day, first class, new school, 9th grade,
It is my first day at a brand new school.
Trembling, flinching, and pale, I am afraid.
I should be at the beach or in a pool.
Science, English, and Health, new things to learn,
My Teachers helped me understand the words.
I was left with no extra time to burn.
I walked among the massive student herds.
“I think I like this place!” I said aloud.
I’m in the nest, where everyone belongs.
My predecessors would be very proud.
I’m happy when I hear the last bell’s “Dongs.”
I loved my first day at a brand new school;
My teachers they were kind and never cruel.
