CLASSROOM DREAMS Seated one day rn my classroom I was weary and 1ll at ease My gaze wandered to the wmdow Prom whence came a heavenly breeze I stretched to look out of the wrndow A srgh escaped my lrps There walked a beauteous creature Prom a soda takrng srps Mx throat was parched I was tued Id had no sleep the nrght before The sandman came acreepm And I was asleep nce more' My shoulder started to pam me I awoke from my heavenly joys Its all rrght to sleep rn my classes But must you make all that norse? Thus the vorce of the teacher reached me I awoke wrth a startled yell As I gathered my wrts about me I heard the warnrng bell' Trme was gomg fast I rushed out the d or wrth mv studres In an endeavor not to be last Study was my next per1od I pot there before the rest I started to s1t rn my regular seat But Jumped up wrtn angry zest' Who put that tack the e anyway? Is the questrcn I want to know Was rt meant to pam another? Or was rt placed bx an unknown foe? But sleep agarn overcomes me I am wearv and rll at ease I rest mv head on mv Grammar As ln comes that toublesome ree7e , . Q - 1 I iumped to my feet in a hurry, Y . . K .. Y ' r 5 . . Marilyn Broun is
