Ah, the high school prom

A rite of passage

For those

In high school.

The young ladies:

Spa treatment

Hair, gossip,

Nails,

And the

Perfect prom dress.

The young men:

Fresh haircut,

Rented vehicle

Or cleaned out

Vehicle

Brand new tuxes

Shined shoes

Corsages for

Their dates.

Pictures taken

By parents

Off they go.

Music blasting

In the ballrooms

Friends check out

Each other’s clothes

Pictures upon

Pictures are taken

Votes for prom

King and queen

Counted.

The last dance

Is over.

Will there be

An after-prom party?

Let’s wait for the

Graduation Party.
