Grade 2 is so easy.
I just have to be there.
I sit in my chair,
I don’t talk,
I listen.
***
My friends are fun,
most of them.
I sit in my chair
I don’t talk,
I listen.
***
I love to day dream.
It’s so nice.
I sit in my chair,
I don’t talk,
I listen.
***
I love it when the sun
shines through the window,
on my back
so warm,
like a blanket.
***
Some times
I almost fall asleep.
Some times
I do;
I don’t mean to.
***
My teacher asks me
why am I always
day dreaming?
She never waits
for an answer.
***
She asks me what
I am day dreaming
about today.
I tell her my birthday;
she doesn’t believe me.
***
I could tell her
but if I did
it would make her feel bad.
I know it;
she likes me.
***
I was day dreaming
about deciding
if
I should live with
my mum or my dad.
***
This is too much for me,
I’m just a child.
I sit in my chair,
I don’t talk,
I listen.
