Last Minute Left

Time ticks by ever so slowly

Only a minute left

Bodies tense ready to run

With forty seconds left

Eyes twitch nervously

With thirty seconds left

It’s hard to believe it’s almost over

with twenty seconds left

The euphoria sets in as they count down from 10

9,8,7,

6,5,4,

3,2,1

The bell rings loud they all run out

At zero seconds left

They are out the door

Headed for fun

At Zero seconds left.

You only hope you taught them well

Because summer has come

And just begun

At Zero Seconds left
