High School

Last night brought back some interesting memories. This time, I am sitting on the other side of the desk and attended the High School Valentine's Banquet as a chaperone. It was a lot of fun to watch these students that I have grown to love and appreciate interact in new ways! Another teacher and myself were asked to help with some "activities". The only idea we used last night was to have each table write a poem about something relating to Valentine's Day. Below is one of the poems written by a group of high school students.

Candles, Candies, and Converstaion Ques
In a room with 7 girls,
There was chaos, pearls, and curls.

While guys took showers,
and went to buy flowers,

Perfecting makeup to look just right,
ready to have a wonderful night.

Got cologne in his eye and started to cry,
hoped that the teacrs won't stain his new tie.

Tripped with the curling still in her hair
Christina looks good in that dress, it's not fair.

Stepped in a puddle, got mud on his shoe,
all distracted because he was thinking of you.

Guys arrived and started to wait,
overly anxious over a BCA date.

The girls walked in all pretty and stuff,
The guys tried to look big, hot, and buff.

Blinded eyes and really fake smile,
taking perfect photos took such a long while.

Walking in, this place looked so nice,
We all wonder how Andre got such a great price.

Candles, candies, and conversation ques,
all made better by being with you.
