Monday

 

Schoolyard snowmen show

What teachers tell: carrot and

Stick can both work well.

 

Tuesday

 

For whom the bell tolls

It’s lunch break; sausage rolls in

School canteens, with beans.

 

Wednesday

 

School rugby?  Not me.

Hughie Pugh is six foot two.

I am five foot three.

 

Thursday

 

“So, this prank was ….. whose?”

They fidget and they shuffle

And stare at their shoes. 

 

Friday

 

Ancient castles, their

Kings and fools now replaced by

Visitors from schools.

 

Saturday

 

Links forged in the white

Heat of youth, secure and strong

Many decades on.

 

Sunday

 

Schools, rules, woodwork tools,

Girls, boys, smells, noise. Teachers, pub,

Ready rub.  Madness.
