How lifeless are the ragged books!--
Dictations, irksome estimations!
When with her humble, charming looks
She drives me wild. (Patience, patience!)

What answers can the math provide
Through boring formulas and lessons?
Why must I know the speed of light
When in her eyes I see the essence?

The school day is already ending,--
I know she’ll meet me by the gate.
She stands there innocent, enchanting,--
She loves me. And I cannot wait.

Hey man, school is important too.
Get your mind off these girls and back into your textbooks, mister!

That's my tip of the day.

This was really great! I thought the flow and theme was amazing. Ending, perfect! Wowish, very well done. I read it to my friend's niece and she loved it....good joB!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
