off to school…
what a grand thing
out from mama’s sheltering wing.
off to school…
out the door
home doesn’t matter anymore.
off to school…
with her friends
waiting the next when this day
ends.
off to school…
teacher new
“Mom, she’s so much nicer than
you.”
off to school…
big girl shoes
mama’s home now cryin’ the blues.

I think I will forever comment on your talent.
ReplyDeleteTreasure these days, the happiness & the hardness in them. No matter what, wrap them up in your heart & treasure them.
love this. reading made me think of Tif skipping out the door, the words made me feel like skipping too :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't experienced Mom's side of the first day of school but I still remember the little girl's side. I wonder if there's any higher pedestal than that of a first grade teacher.
