End of Term - very loose and silly |

Well, can you keep the boys quiet for the moment Mr Smith Yes I know they want to raise the roof At least let us get it fitted first As I believe is the term Yes I know the rain is coming in But the boilers are fightin back Yes I know the steam is coming through Our computer controls they hacked I know the organ pipes have gone I'd hoped we perservere There is enough wind in these lads To put the world in fear I know they are all in their shorts To keep the heat down No I didn't give the green shampoo around I just wanted On the eve of term To manage just one speech Without my fears confirmed But so I must and with these words Welcome you to go And please bring back the bricks this time I have nowhere else to go |

Dave, I enjoyed reading this poem. I could almost see the school room with the kids and the mischief in their eyes. Hugs Ethel |
