Farewell to a Berry Best Principal

Farewell to a berry best principal!
The big school tree is shaking
and my tummy kind of hurts,
Because our favarite principal
is packed and leaving first.
You always smile and greet us,
like a bright, sweet tangerine,
You’re the coolest, nicest principal
that I have ever seen.
Without you here at PEGS, the hallways
will feel a little blue,
like a mushy, bruised banana
that only brings sad news.
We’re sad you have to go away,
and leave PEGS behind,
But we hope your brand new adventure
is the berry bestest kind!
We miss you like crazy,
from our heads down to our feet,
Thank you Ms Hallman for making our
school so wonderfully sweet!
