“First Day Jitters”
New school year, new class, new friends, Heart racing, palms sweating, stomach-churning, Will they like me? Will I fit in? The seventh grade starts with first-day jitters. The bell rings, and we file inside, Every seat taken, every corner filled. Names spoken, assigned to our teams, I pray this isn’t just a dream. The teacher speaks, outlining the year, Expectations are high, workload is heavy. I want to learn, to make new friends, But these first-day jitters never end.
“Locker Mishap”
The halls are like a warzone, Students rushing, laughing, shouting, Trying to make it to class on time, But then, a dreaded sight – a stuck locker door. I panic, pulling and tugging in vain, People are rushing past, offering advice. Finally, after what feels like an hour, It opens! But my books are all over the floor. I gather them up, embarrassed and flustered, Hoping no one saw, hoping the day ends better. But in the chaos of the hallway, Anything can happen in seventh grade.
“First Crush”
A flutter in my heart, a blush on my cheeks, His smile was so bright my heart skipped a beat. I’m nervous, don’t know what to say or do, But class with him is the highlight of my day. I write his name in bubbly letters, Dreaming of talking to him soon. I switch classes hoping to get a glimpse, And I watch, from afar, as the bell rings at noon. He talks with other girls, and my heart aches, Wondering if he even knows I exist. But a glance, a nod, a friendly gesture, It is enough to make me fee...

“First Day Fun”
The first day of seventh grade began, And I wished summer wasn’t quite done, But new friends would be made, And memories displayed, So I quickly joined in on the fun.
“Locker Troubles”
I fumble and fuss with my lock, While the bell rings and crowds start to flock, But with a turn of my wrist, My locker’s amiss, And I’m left with a backpack to stock.
“First Crush Fiasco”
I just couldn’t stop the heart-flutters And the thrill from the simplest of mutters But my hopes were in vain, And I felt all the pain, Of rejection and love that just alters.
“First Day of Fall”
Days dawn, bright and clear The first day of seventh grade Nerves flurry like leaves New faces and friends await Adventures in Autumn air

Blush of youth, first crush Mad flutter in one’s stomach Hand on the heart’s rush Talking, teasing, and daydreaming Seventh grade, young love in-bloom
“First Day of Seventh Grade”
With hurried steps, I walk through the open hall, My heart is racing like the wind upon the sea. A new year, new rules, new friends, and all, A day of wonder, apprehension free. Who will I meet? And who will be my guide? And what of them will I come to believe? What lessons, from the teachers, will abide? And how will I, amidst this world, achieve? Yet I step through the doors with an open mind, The first page of my story to unfold. Excitement and fear, so tightly entwined, With restless thou...
“A Lesson in Friendship”
Amidst a field of uncut grass, I wait, For those dear people, I cannot expel, A group of friends, we share a common fate, As we wander paths of seventh-grade hell. These journeys are full of ups and downs and more, As we learn side by side through clouds of pain, And comfort wounds from what we felt before, While reaching out as true friends once again. The solid ties we make show strength firsthand, And offer support while we brave the tide, As we march forward through trials from the land,...
“The Lockers”
The wheels of time turned quickly, day by day, As seventh grade now enters full swing, And just like that, along the locker way, I struggle with a lock, harp, and heartstrings. Behind this padlocked door, a world of peace, My books and notes and everything I need, But still, my third number keeps the release, And creates anxiety within with speed. When all is said and done, I’m locked away, My time has passed, and my hopes are just a bust, My eyes beg for a break from this third day, As seven...
“Ode to the First Day”
Oh, how you filled my heart with such delight, A brand new school year, a fresh start so bright. Excitement filled the halls as we found our seats, Learning new things and making new friends to meet. From the first bell to the last, each moment was grand, Filled with possibility and dreams in hand. Oh, the first day of seventh grade, here’s to you, A day of magic, learning, and something new.
“Ode to My Friends”
In seventh grade, we formed a bond so strong, A friendship that will last our whole lifelong. Through laughter and tears, ups and downs galore, We stood together, always wanting more. Weekends spent together, playing games and laughing, Walking to school, talking and sharing what’s happening. Oh, friends of seventh grade, you light up my life, You’re the sunshine after every dark night.
“Ode to the Teachers”
From algebra to English and history, They taught us with care, guidance and grace so worthy. They instilled knowledge, love and empathy, And created an environment so supportive in the seventh-grade community. They cheered us on through all our struggles and trials, And encouraged us to reach for the skies with all our might. Oh, teachers of the seventh grade, this ode is for you, The foundation upon which we all grew.
