School Days (minus e)

A short poem for the minus vowel contest

School days (minus e)

School days, my days of fun
Playing always in the hot sun
Tutors shouting at us
And making a big fuss
About math and history
And causing us lot of worry

My ma and my papa call out
As I run, I think both shout
‘Study good and hard in school.
Fail not, for all will call you a fool’
But all I think of is my football
For that is my world - my ball

I could not finish school and did fail
My pa did cry and my momma wail
But I worry not for I do know
With my kicks and goals I can show
That I am a sportsman with a ball
Who can win any match of football.
