They sit here on the bench, all packed to go
Their uniforms,
quite casual, on show;
For Isabella, kindergarten
beckons
While Thomas is
a sure hand at his lessons…
All present and
correct, without half measures,
Their little knapsacks
brim with personal treasures;
For Mum this is
a step change, empty nest
Time perhaps to
ponder what comes next …
This February shines
with prospects bright
A scenario exciting
for wee mite!
For Isabella, routines
will extend
Free-wheeling all
day long is at an end.
From now on, life
will run at faster pace
With newbies she
will jostle, find her place;
Today she tiptoes
bravely through school gates
Where a world
of discipline awaits …
