I See

By Lea Matanovic (class of 2027)

I see the yellow busses lined up in front of the school

The hallways with rows of lockers full

I hear the music playing before my first class

Let’s listen up for today’s announcements: Cavs

“Join, sign up, participate,” the words I often hear

Opportunities are always near

The bell rings after third block

Everyone is speeding up their walk

It’s lunchtime!

People are getting ready to reserve their seats

Looking for the best spot for group meets

So many benches with different stories to tell

So many smiles right before the next bell

Finally, the last class of the day

Just have to let these ninety minutes pass away

Once it’s over, the cycle begins again

The yellow busses in front of the school remain

The rows of lockers are waving goodbye

“See you tomorrow,” I reply
