The classes came out, grade by grade,
In costumes for the grand parade,
A hand-held sign announcing each,
In lock-step with the ones who teach.
A motor-scootered cop came first
To make sure traffic was dispersed
While friends and families lined the streets
To photograph or send out Tweets.
We saw the first grade classes pass
And there was Hadley with her class.
As Ariel, she marched and grinned
(In human form, not scaled or finned).
The third grade group came up so fast
We almost missed when Henry passed.
He gave a glance but didn’t smile,
As serious is more his style.
A sweet event for Halloween
For all the students to be seen
Parading in the neighborhood
As, on this holiday, they should.
