Schools out for the Summer

I've got presents galore.

They are all on the floor.

There are flowers, wine, gin and chocolates to eat.

They will be a real treat.

But I'm on a diet and I'll have to pace myself,

or just leave them on the shelf.

But I must remember, that I should not stuff my face,

because eating chocolates doesn't have to be a race.

I can eat a little, now and then.

And I know when!

It would be now, if I had my way,

but my diet says, ' Wait another day.'

But that said, I'm glad the children were kind to me,

and they let their appreciation run free.

Because they are a great bunch of children, who are good and kind.

The best bunch of children you could ever find.

But that said, I intend to enjoy my time off to the full.

To eat wine, gin and chocolates until we go back to school.

But a big thank you to all the children I work with, for it's been cool.

And now enjoy the holidays and don't work to rule.
