Back to School

A little poem I wrote as it was the start of the school year for me today.

---

The summer sun still shines bright,
But autumn whispers in the night.
The days grow shorter, a little cooler,
It’s time for pencils, books and rulers.
New backpacks filled with fresh supplies,
As a new school year before us lies.

Friends reunited after the break,
Stories and adventures we can’t wait to make.
Though carefree summer days now fade,
Learning and growth the coming months pervade.
A mix of excitement and nervous cheer,
The first day of school is finally here!
