The most annoying sound in this world,
Is what woke me up from a year’s sleep this morning!
Seemed like my clock sprang to life!

TRING! TRING! TRINNGGG! It rang!

I see -
My
Eyelids,
With weights on them,
My hair,
As electrocuted as ever,
My mouth,
As dry as sand.

I hear,

“Wake Up! Wake Up! Wake Up!”
While my mom makes her way to my bed,
In her bright red and white gown,

At the drop of a hat,
I,
Then manage to move,
My 50 kilos body,
Onto the floor,
As cold as ice!

My walk to the bathroom is,
slow as a snail,
dull as a dishwasher,
And clumsy as a clown.

I brush my teeth,
I take my bath,
And run into the hall,
Fresher. Than. E V E R.

“My first day of school!” I screamed,
My family members confused,
Is he happy?
or
Is he angry?
or
Is he nervous?


I then broke,
The doubt,
Like a shattered
  W
I N
D
O W!

I’ll see my teachers,
I’ll see my friends,
I’ll see my school,

I ran and ran,
And sniffled and sniffled,

With almost no oxygen left,
I screamed - “I am here!”
Just at the nick of time!

TRING! TRING! TRINNNG!

The school bell rang.
