Enough Of Online Classes by K. Shrija

I want to wear my uniform, shoes and socks,

Carry my school bag and lunch box.

I want to hear the school bell ringing,

Run along the corridor singing.

I want to sit in the classroom bench

Along with my friends and share lunch,

I want to play in the spacious playground

With merry and laughter all around.

No online classes anymore!

They make my eyes pain and sore.

They make me feel blue,

As to the system, Am always glued.

Am all alone in a room,

Learning classes through zoom.

Online Classes, when will you end?

I want the learning pattern to be amended.
