I penned this at South Gap in my first year of governessing. It was written on 13 of August 1997. The year 3 schoolwork had a fantastic unit on poetry, which inspired me to start writing again. What a great lifestyle governessing is, it allows you to follow all your dreams.
The Window
You
wake up in the morning,
What
a great looking day
Out
the window the sun shines away.
Getting
up and having breakfast
Hoping
for delight not dismay
For
out the window the sun shines away.
Into
the schoolroom we go
Starting
a new day
Looking
out the window the sun shines away.
Finally
reached smoko
She’s
trying her best
Still
out the window the sun shines away
Back
into the schoolroom
Back
to the fray
Through
the window the sun shines away.
Lunchtime
has arrived
I’m
feeling frazzled and dazed
Yet
out the window the sun shines away.
Afternoon
filled with Art and science
Developmental
play
And
out the window the sun shines away.
School
is out at last
She’ll
get a star
As
we look out the window the sun shines away.
The
rest or the day is mine at last
Peace
and sunshine
Then
I look out the window and see rain coming this way.
