Backpack
January 9, 2020
I walk the school’s congested hallways
As you travel with me from class to class,
I set you down beside my desk
Once the bell rings together we blast.
You are the home to my school supplies
Always keeping me prepared with each strap,
I bring you out every weekday
You are always right there, right on my back.
I walk around with this heavy load
Longing for release,
Thank you for being my helper when my hands are full
Now time to pack up each and every piece.
