I’m heading to books, and dull pencils.
Classes, studying, homecomings, and dances.
Panting, and sweating is where I’m going.
Sprinting to the finish, swinging my hardest.
Sliding and helmets.
Tennies and spikes.
Further along, caps flying, red gowns and a diploma.
Back to the books and pens.
Laptops and study sessions.
Marathon study nights, and caffeinated drinks..
I’m heading towards sprinting harder and faster than ever before.
Swinging and practices
Crowds clapping, and celebrations
I’m going towards student teaching and graduating.
Back to a classroom, books, erasers.
Smiling kids, fixing scraped knees, wiping tears
I’m going towards education.
Smiling and laughter.
