Back Room Boy

I wrote the poem that Tommy read

In assembly today

I volunteered to be the one

Who puts the paints away

I am the playtime monitor

I take Miss Moss her tea

If someone’s needed for a job

Then that someone is me

I passed the ball to Sarah

And Sarah scored the goal

I rehearsed the play with Tina

Prepared her for the role

I like to work behind the scenes

Not in the spotlight’s glare

But I thought I’d write this poem

To remind you I am there
