It’s a rite of passage for many high schoolers, and often a fun and festive marker of the end of the school year. Some kids go all out with elaborate outfits, limos and afterparties, while some decide to bow out. Prom is just one night, but the stories about it often endure for much longer.
Prom
Dress up in your finest
With sparkle and shine
Step out into the night
This is your time!
Maybe start with a dinner
At a super-fancy place
Maybe hop in a limo
With a smile on your face
Then get to the dance
Race out onto the floor
Or maybe play it cool
And just hang by the door
Drink some punch
Scan the crowd
Meet with friends
Laugh out loud
Yup school’s almost over
Tonight you’ll party and shine
Then step out into the world –
This is your time!
