I'm a nervous wreck
A breakdown in the engine
I don't know what to do
for soon I'll get stingy
Only 5 minutes left
I have to get ready
but wait--my heads here
along with my pen, ever so steady
Ring, ring
There goes the bell
what will this year bring
Will I crack open my shell?
My teacher is nice
now how bout the students
do I know them-yes
There's Deseree Pudent
Wow that went swell!
Like it was in the 60s
I cracked my eggshell
One piece at a time
The only thing left
is to come clean and tell
my mom of my day
how I cracked my own shell
Next time remember
don't be so nervous
for all it causes
is worry and fear

We all get the first day of school jitters - reading this reminded me of a MUCH younger version of myself. But we all go through that
so lighten up - it might not be as bad as you think; you might even enjoy it!

This was a nice poem. I like the incorporated metaphor of the 60s.

This poem is really good, it reminds me of what my first day of school is always like. I could really relate. Good job and definitely keep up with it!
