I
had already learned to read
One Fish, Two Fish,
Red Fish, Blue Fish
Without
hardly a stumble
And
to tie my shoes
Without
hardly looking
I
could ride my bike
A
streaking silver number
Dubbed
"Springing Arrow"
With
its sleek black banana seat
Fast
and steady
And even with no hands
After
all that I thought I was good
Didn't
need much more
But
then school came along
And
it was all built up to be a big deal
But
I couldn't see the point
I
had the three "r's" covered
Reading,
riding and running
I
bade farewell
To
the crab apple trees
And
acquiesced to go
I
found many positives
Once
I gave it a chance
They
offered a casual schedule
Half
day of work for full credit
Nap-time adamantly enforced
Company
provided snacks
Frequent
breaks
Outdoor
play time
Pretty
sweet deal
