In rows
we sit before the teachings of our professor
waiting in anticipation for the freedom to dance in the sun
upon the ringing bells
At once
we jump on the chance to depart
a classroom of stuffy air and darkened light
which we gladly exchange
To play
in the symposium of nature
Where the glistenings of an affectionate sun adorn the water with it’s graces
we eagerly learn
The lessons
of courage, joy, and adventure
where we study and are tested by the challenges bestowed
upon one another
To dusk
we run through the world
from the icy tips of Everest to the luscious prairie green
so that we may shriek beneath the humored heavens
We laugh
in the faces of adversity we howl in amusement
so that free of mind we may splash amongst the immortal waves
and snack on Eden’s fruits
Until time
has come to call for an end and lead the cause
home to bed so that opportunity might bless our youthful souls
to begin once again
