"Can't wait till summer," you hear everywhere
In schoolyards from Maine to Cal.,
Our children looking forward to
A lift to their morale.

Important books to read and consult?
Intense practice in tennis?
More time to study for SATs?
Try out for The Merchant of Venice?

Forget the vacations of yesteryear
And the need for active play!
What kids all around are dreaming of
Is being on Facebook all day.

Yes, it amazes me how many kids are on Facebook who are way too young to have an account in the first place. My grandson, for one. It's a status thing now even with the younger set.
You are so right, they are addicted to it.
Sweet poetry!
