Jack's First Day of School
in a little Aussie town by the bay, Jack was nervous about his first school day. His bag was packed, his shoes were new, But his tummy felt wobbly, his fear just grew.
"What if I'm lonely?" Jack said with a sigh."What if no one talks to me? I might even cry!"But Mum gave a smile, her hug warm and tight,"You'll be just fine, my shining light."
The school bell rang, the gates opened wide,Jack took a deep breath and stepped inside.Kids were laughing, running here and there,But Jack just stood, unsure where to stare.
His teacher, Miss Grace, was kind and sweet,"Welcome, Jack! Come find a seat."The classroom was bright, with colors galore,Books and pencils, and so much more!
"Let’s all say hello," Miss Grace said with cheer,And Jack heard voices from far and near."Hi, Jack!" they called, with smiles so wide,Jack’s fear shrank, he felt warmth inside.
At recess, Jack saw a boy with a ball,"Do you want to play?" he gave a small call.The boy said, "Sure! I’m Ben, let’s score a goal!"And just like that, Jack felt whole.
By lunchtime, Jack had made a new crew,There was Mia, and Sam, and even Sue.They laughed and played on the climbing frame,Jack thought, "I’m so glad I came!"
When the final bell rang, Jack ran to his Mum,"I made friends today; school was so fun!"His Mum beamed with pride, "I knew you’d be fine,You’re brave and bright, my star will shine!"
That night in bed, Jack whispered with glee, "Tomorrow’s another school day for me! "And as he dreamed of the fun ahead, Jack’s worries were gone, replaced with joy instead.
