This Classroom of Life
　

Our classroom
Earth
We enter
As a new-born
Being taught
From our first breath
By
Our greatest of teachers
Our parents
As we leave the baby stage
We enter another grade in this most
Wonderful school
Called life
We learn
From those with more knowledge
We learn
From our disappointments
And our achievements
And our friends
Class after class
Then
We learn again
When
We enter the class
Of
Being on our own
We continue to take lessons
From
Those that cross our paths
Those we become greater
Than friends with
Then another great lesson
The mating with another
And see the most
Wonderful
Product ever to
Come forth
Our learning is never ended
We never stop learning
Never stop taking lessons
And
Courses
Until we graduate
From this most
Unusual academy
Called life
Our lessons now complete
No more to learn of
Here
