School-My Second Home

By Tamasi Pabbati

Entered this place 13 years ago,

A little girl with much to know.

Saw people my age running to and fro,

Had a mixture of emotions, but couldn't show.

Didn't really know when time,

flew from singing a rhyme,

To learning which court is for the one who commits a crime.

Dreams of success, a path to prime.

Having my teachers support rock solid,

I passed all the obstacles that came amidst.

They shaped me from a person timid,

To a person so avid.

A place where I found amazing friends for life,

For whom I can any day go under the knife.

There might be instances when we get into a Strife

But I know that they'll be there when I'm in a Trife.

These people just keep me sane,

Around them there's never an energy drain,

They are the ones who can never see me in pain.

All they wish for is my gain.

When the memories flashed upon the inward eye,

It instantly gave me a cry.

Turning this page in my book of life with a sigh,

To my school, it's time to say goodbye!!
