Snowday

Submitted by pineapple_babbit on December 17, 2007 - 10:06.

Snow…
School…
Why,
Oh Why am I here?
Isn’t snow supposed to bring joy
And happiness to kids?
Bring days off,
Or at least some sleep?
Snow is supposed to rejuvenate us all.
Today,
Is didn’t.
It tired us out,
It made commutes harder.
Snow…
Adults don’t understand
Snow…
I weep when I think of all of the other kids
Sleeping
Playing
Escaping school…
