In The Middle

Matthew is in a tight spot Between the funny boy, John And the serious man, Sean Everyone is awed of what he does He could be a kid like John He could be a grown up man like Sean. He just entered a new world A different place Where he could be anyone A world of roller coaster A one hundred eighty degree twist And turn maneuver. Years ago He loved to wear shirts that showed Big prints of Super Mario Big Bird and Mickey Mater and Snoopy Now he wants his shirts plain So simple and yet clean. He is now in Middle School And he feels it is so cool Yet sometimes there are fools Who want to go against the rules Set by the school. Middle School is wonderful And life is colorful Despite the turns and twists Matthew's parents guide him Through the years. Four years have been so fruitful Matthew is now leaving Middle School With a place in the High Honor Roll A gift so unique and memorable For her proud parents, Mr. and Mrs. Hall.
