I Love my School

Author's Note:
This is a poem that was inspired by Dr. Seuss's Lost Poem. It's not really true, but it all rhymes. I am focusing on word choice.

I love my school, from now to May
I love it more and more each day
I love my teachers, they're the best
I love my friends and all the rest

I love my locker (it's location)
I really hate summer vacation
I love my classes, drab and gray
I love it more and more each day

I love my desk just like a cell
There's nothing else I love so well
I love to work among my peers
I love their leers and jeers and sneers

I love my computer and it's software
When it breaks, it's just not fair
I love each program, every file
I try to get once in a while

I happy to be there, I am. I am.
I'm the happiest slave of Uncle Sam.
I love this work. I love this chore.
I love the daily, constant bore.

I love my school- I'll say it again
And every email I must send
And if you ask, I am quite cool
Because I love, love, love my school
