Kindergarden

You held my hand right through the door
As I began to weep in fear
I turned to face my future friends
But I still wanted out of here.

Your turned to leave me by myself
I ran and then began to cry
You said that you'd be back for me
But I still thought it was a lie.

I watched you walking out of sight
The teacher came and took my hand
I tried my best to hide my fear
Oblivious to this wonderland.

Sitting with the ones like me
Each as scared as I had been
Little did each of us know
What fun that we had fallen in

I did not ever had to fake
The person that I really am
At this time each of us were
One another's biggest fan.

And I soon enough began to feel
Like this place just might be cool
Then later on I soon realized
That I was going to like school.

Sandbox, Crayons and puppet shows
I don't want it to end
Counting numbers, learning shapes
I wish the day could just extend.

Sitting in a circle, Silent
As the teacher reads
I guess that I was just too young
to see that this met all my needs.

Now I see you at the door
I can feel the tears again
I just wish to play some more
Please tell me that I can.

I see you smile to yourself
Because you know that you were right
You walked up to where I was standing
And hugged me really tight.

You say I can come back tomorrow
I smile, I can't wait
This is one thing I could never
Even try to hate.

I hold your hand and smile
What joy this place will bring
This is a child's dream come true
It is the greatest thing.
