On the Morn of the First Day Back in School

On this first day back, not counting the trips to the classroom to prepare, I will not run away.

I will think of a place that is dear to me.

And I will forge ahead, looking to what is ahead and not what is behind.

Rubbish! I won't often be thinking of Rocky Hill and the fun afternoon spent with family. I won't have time as I sort through the new students I will spend the next five and a half months with. Now that is an adventure.
