My School Days

The hubbub of the pupils' laughter and the shrilly scream of the bell,
they signalled the start of another fun and eventful day in school.

Some pupils conscientiously scribbled down the notes,
while the others snored with teacher droning on.

The heavily anticipated recess bell finally rang,
signalling a brief end to the hectic school life.

A pandemonium began at the canteen, some ran about,
and the others cut queues to purchase mouth-watering food.

Adjacent to the canteen was a huge green field,
some played and perspired, having a whale of their time.

When the dismissal bell screamed repeatedly,
they scrambled down the stairs, glad to embrace freedom.

Oh! How I hope that time can do me a favour and rewind,
my fond memories of primary school days will etch in my mind.
