Poems by Aden Lee and Padma, Skylark Press Studio School Days: The Joys of Recess | Page 2

School Days: The Joys of Recess
Unending laughter on a spotless day
Bounces life off silent concrete.
I am home, cooled by the breeze
Of Hermes–the child who dashes past me.
The air swells with chatter;
Like a doe, I spring
From the summit of my dream.
My running steps are muffled,
Cushioned by a red rubber track.
