Watching the time ticking away,

My brain begins to slowly decay.

I muster all of my strength

Trying to stay awake,

But nothing seems to help.

Eventually,

It's obvious to me,

That my mind was meant to wander.

I begin to think, I begin to ponder,

Where else, right now, could I be?

Pretending to listen,

Not paying attention,

The gears begin to turn.

The classroom is replaced

By a room with a vase,

Near to the beach, I can see.

Stepping outside and smelling the air,

I sprout wings and I'm there:

In my most favorite place anywhere.

Taking off at last,

So far and so fast,

I leave the beautiful beach behind.

Over the water and under the sun,

Flipping and rolling, it's so much fun!

Flapping my wings and gliding awhile,

My lips broaden into a smile.

There on the horizon,

The land appears!

Greens and browns,

Plains and mounds,

The waves hitting the shore.

Oh, what a sight!

Oh, what a sound!

The beautiful, beautiful land!

I point towards the ground,

And then I slow down,

Receiving full points from the crowd!

Then the people are gone,

My friends come along.

We walk,

And we talk,

Traversing all of the land!

All of a sudden,

A harsh ringing cries out,

Waking me up from my thoughts.

Looking around,

I'm still sitting down,

While all the rest have already gone.

I rush to pick up

All of my stuff,

Then hurriedly get to my next class.

The teacher is talking,

The clock is tick-tocking,

And the ocean returns quite fast.
