3:05 PM

3:05 PM is a poem that describes the last day of school, and the first day of summer.  There is no ryhme scheme, just short sentences. The original assignment was to write about a certain time, and I picked the last day of school because that is the day I am looking forward to the most.

 
3:05
 
No wind,
Just sun,
Cold's gone,
Heat has come;
Steaming sidewalks,
Wet skin,
Ice cubes melting,
Smiles beaming;
 
Loud voices,
Cell phones out,
Crowded halls,
Papers all about,
Children crying;
Goodbye slaps,
And farewell kisses,
So long to all of the Mr.'s and Mrs.'s;
 
The bell has rung,
School has officially been let out.
