(Dedicated to ALL members of ELL, especially the teachers + someone else in ELL)
Btw this is an acrostic poem, that means the first letter of each line together form a sentence.
End of year poem.
I still canโt believe middle school has passed
Having started at 6th grade,
A tiny boy I was back then,
Darling, did I feel mature back then.
And yet every year I feel less so.
Long for the past I do.
Of course, I would.
Virtue of past joys of naivety,
Experiences that will never happen once more.
Long for the past I do,
Yet time moves only forward.
So, I guess I should make do,
‘Cause time moves only forward.
Happy memories have occurred in the pastโ
Otherwise the past wouldnโt be so desirable.
Only that I canโt change the past….
Lest I were Superman.
You and I first met a while back.
Except it felt like seconds ago,
And I wish time would reverse.
Right… time moves only forward.
Well, I guess thatโs unchangeable.
I guess I should deal with it.
Thus, I should move on,
Happily living in the present.
Youโve been a great friend to me.
Oโ sadly, not always true the other way.
Understandably, I will never forget you.
