School Days

Monday morning starts with the blues
Then the dappled sunlight improves the hues
History is just bittersweet chronicles of the past
While math hits the bulls-eye, making it a blast
I guess you can tell what I enjoy most
But when the final bell rings, school becomes a ghost

——

This is my response to Linda Kruschke’s Paint Chip Poetry Challenge Prompt #2. The challenge is to write a poem in response to the prompt card that includes at least four of the seven paint chip words or phrases. The prompt phrase is School Days and the prompt words are: bull’s eye, dappled sunlight, bittersweet, the blues, salmon, happily ever after, and whale song.
