Little Man watched out the window-
He saw his playmate, on the school bus,
ride away slow.
.
It had been different the whole summer long-
With no schedule, to worry about, the playtime
was strong.
.
Little Man would run and catch the ball-
He’d slide all the way down the hall.
.
Little Man would sleep in late-
Knowing that when he awoke, all
day long, he’d have his playmate.
.
But, suddenly things began to change-
Little Man’s life was in full re-arrange.
.
His playmate was no longer there during
the day-
For quite a while, the playmate would be
away.
.
School had begun, and for Little Man, he
had to adjust-
To wait for his playmate to come home,
patience was a must.
.
So he chewed on his bone, and hung
around until that yellow school bus
came back-
And, then life for Little Man, would get
back on track.
.
Little Man watched out the window-
He saw his playmate, on the school bus,
ride away slow.
