There are memories to be made,
Tears to be shed,
Friends to meet,
And lives to be led.

Classes to cut,
Quizzes to fail,
Don't worry about it,
You will prevail.

Notes to be passed,
Principals to meet,
No matter what they say,
Don't take your seat.

Standing up to do,
For what you know is right,
And when they say you're wrong,
You'll get into a fight.

Yearbooks to sign,
Even more tears,
So much will happen,
In these four years.

didnt like it. it was way too simplistic in the language. if you are 12 then it is ok, but i am assuming that you are not. the rhyming is too predictable as well. venture out and try using imagery and metaphors. that is a challenge that more poets need to take up. i encourage you to do so. keep writing and posting.

Well, I really loved how straight foward you were, but I do enjoy to hear positive things about my poems, it makes me feel better.

Well, if you like hearing positive things then you're in luck. I really loved your poem.  About the rhyming, don't worry, everyone does it once in awhile (yes even me! )

not all poems have to be deep and metaphorical. i love more simple short poems every once in a while. and those can be screwed up with tacky rhyming, but i think you did a good job.

Well now I thought your poem was simply terrific, and told the story you were trying to get across very well.  It was light and fun, and charming!
