Another School Year
The doors are opend once again.
Tensions all around,
Depressed faced saying so long to summer
Chatter circulating
Filling my ears,
Formilliar faces greeting with joy.
Long gone shall summer be,
Days of stress,
Deeper and deeper into thought
Life continue, life remains,
I walk through the school
Sounds of laughter, lockers crash
Groups gather,
Popularity returns.
Acceptance means more then ever.
Yet life stays, life exceeds,
School remains, I suceed.
Haley Ruth-Ann Sterne

| I can definitely relate to this poem. I'm happy to say I am beyond the point where popularity matters. I used to care about it but I don't anymore. As far as I can tell, everyone at my college is treated fairly equal. I know its not like that at all colleges though. Anyways, good job! |

Good read, there are a few words that I am not sure if you wanted to change the tense of the word. Example: Depressed Faced or Depressed Faces? Life Continue, Life Remains or Life Continues?
Just suggestions or my misinterpretation. Nice feeling throughout the work. Enjoyed the imagery and it makes me glad that I am done with that part of my life. I especially like the line of : Popularity returns. I was never the popular kid and I always despised the ones who only valued themselves based on thier popularity in high school.
Thanks again and keep up the great work.

| Reminds me of the old days too. School can be damned tricky. It's a mix of politics, hormones... but hopefully friendship and love as well. I wish you the success in school you seek! |

Been a while since I was at school but this description of school routine and chaos rang very true. I'm English, but this is the kind of verse that 'travels' well in that anyone in whatever country of whatever age can identify with it. You create a nice hectic atmosphere.
Just noticed one typo: "Formilliar" - should be "Familiar"! |

Reading this I can remember those days and I can exactly picture how will they be... in my school is the same,year after year, as it was in yours. Hope I'll succeed, too :-)
I liked this, nice poem. |
