Middle School
Middle School
A road to success or destruction
Accidents on the road
To swerve out of the way, but not to stop and help
As if we are Scrooge who feels no empathy
The many paths we face along this difficult path
What themes to follow and who to listen to
To be a leader or a follower
External conflicts as quarrel and feuds
Internal conflicts as meditating on your success
Just as Scrooge contemplated on his wrong doings
But all in all these obstacles you face will make you who you are
They will shape your life as Michelangelo sculpted the David
The bumps on the road will challenge you
But middle school is about overcoming these roadblocks
To pass the roadblocks and persist onward
To the end of the road
To success
