On the rear Bench

I was late, I was late

I was very much late

Bell had rung, the classes full,

all were very quiet.

I entered the class

with silent steps

I don't know how,

but my eyes felt tears

Ma'am said, 'Now

on the rear bench you sit

Nut behind and hold

your toes before you sit.'

There was a whisper

and a bit of laughter

Never t I'd be

at the center of such matter.

After holding my toes

I took bench in the rear

Slowly and slowly,

my head became clear.

Couldn't see much of

what was on the board

Straightened my neck

and became a little bold.

No one could see me,

I could see their backs

I was quite attentive

my mind was never lax.

Feeling a little drowsy,

I put my head on the desk

Slept for ten minutes,

there wasn't any risk.

Through the window

then saw the white clouds

floating

Kites were circling

and the birds were singing.

Punishment wasn't awful,

there wasn't a bad sign

On the rear bench I sensed,

everything was fine.
