1989

Sunny autumn day
Purple dress
Standing on the concrete steps
Smile for the camera
Before going off to school

And inside,all the kids
Sat “Indian Style” on the floor
The Letter People sat in chronological order
The toys were something to look forward to
Playing House in the play kitchen area
Teddy bears became babies
The wooden blocks were food

Learning time comes
Learn how one and one make two
What day of the week this is
What color clothes we’re wearing

And then the day was over
The older kids looked so tough
As they walked me back home

Learning hasn’t been as easy
As it was then
Life wasn’t as simple
After kindergarten
