First Day at School

My gorgeous nephew Ben this morning on his first day at school.

I've got a brand new lunchbox.

My shoes are shiny clean.

I've got a cool new school bag

And a pencil case thats green!

But I don't know my teacher,

Or where my desk will be.

I don't know if I'll like the kids,

Or if they'll play with me.

I peek inside my classroom.

I stand there for a while.

My teacher's tall and kind of loud,

But has a great big smile.

And, best of all, she's got my

Favourite book upon the shelf!

I kiss my mother at the door

And walk in by myself.
