Spring break is finally here
Sending the message that summer is near.
We've passed through the seasons and now it is spring
It makes you wonder what forth quarter will bring.
Will it be easy or will it be tough
Will doing most homework still be enough?
With tons of more work and more books to read
Will our social lives still be a need?
It depends on the teacher and if she is mean
And if she assigns work until we go green.
When the work is much and the enjoyment is low
There's always one thing that all of us know:
Whether the homework is great or the classwork is fun
No one can wait until school is done.
