''Twas the Night Before School
'Twas the night before school
And all through the house
There was chaos and dysfunction
And the cat chased a mouse
The children all scrambled
The homework to complete
Although they had all summer
Now a time crunch to beat
The school clothes are clean
And laid out to be worn
I know we will be rushed
And running late in the morn
The fees are all paid
And the lunches are packed
Supplies have been bought
Now it's money I lack
I'm hoping for As
Throughout their reports
preparing for college
scholarship money and sorts
Fall is near
the days will be short
That reminds me of football
It's our most favorite sport
Halloween ever so close
The costumes we'll wear
Its always great fun
And the candy we share
Next thing you know
Turkey we shall eat
And give thanks up above
As family and friends come to meet
The air will turn cold
And snow falls on the ground
Christmas is here
There's peace all around
Roses and candy
Kisses so true
are shared with Valentine's
and young love is new
Spring flowers in bloom
St. Pats day is here
We all dress in green
And adults drink green beer
Easter bunny brings baskets
of eggs colored bright
We fast and we pray
and in God we delight
Its that time again
Another school year has past
The season changed now
And it's summer at last
