In English class, I was caught reading. She asked me about this poem. I remember one of the other students raised his hand, but the teacher was like, no let her answer. So I read the 4 line poem and said exactly what I thought it was. It was about no matter what your age, always stop to smell the roses and see what’s around. After that, she didn’t ever call on me again. :-)
