Final Year Assembly
The children gather in the gym
to hear the last goodbye,
and through the skylight high above
they glimpse the summer sky.

Fine little poem, DB – love how you capture the promise of summer! One of your best short poems.
Cheers KD. Always an exciting time of the year, that last day of school.
I reckon the adults are also looking up through the skylight! At least they should be. I know I would.
Apt Damian.
That time of year..
Ahh, the wishful thinking of things to come. Ripper DB!
So much going on here in four short lines!
Cheers all, and you’re absolutely right Mickey: the excitement is for student, teacher & parent alike.
