friends all over the world
successful, significant
working a dream
job, satisfied and justified
the work
that went in
skyping, texting
every year
happy birthday
dear
and on it goes, the wait
365 days more
for another 3 words
i wish i could
talk about the school
parties, month in advance
drop by your homes
just to say hi, and
stay. long.
conspire against teachers
bear the burnt
snickering.
be unabashed
without care or
regret.
be kids one more
time.
