Awry
hiatus
blame
AFter summer hiatus, The first day of school! Something is bound to go awry
Middles school kids get lost in the halls, Kindergardeners may break down and cry
Buses are delayed, schedules are misplaced
Lockers aren't found, Lunches go to waste
This Morning my sons high school bus was a total No show
No big deal, I drove him there but I let transportation know
They obnoxiously declared There is NO such bus number on their route
So I faxed them The notice they had sent me to take away their doubt.
Nothing seemed to convince them that this bus stop has always been the same
I patiently tried to sensibly explain things without looking to cause any blame
They claim my son isn't zoned to go to a school he's been at for three years!
It doesn't matter that I told them he's not alone the route also holds his peers!
Like talking to a wall I found my explanation attempts futile and going no where,
I guess I will continue this dispute tomorrow, more frustration! How unfair.
