In a classroom bright with light, sat a boy named Bobby Bright. With smiles so wide, he'd always delight, but following rules? That gave him a fright!
Ms. Star, the teacher, waved with cheer, 'Class rules are here! Do not fear!' Bobby gulped and took his seat, wondering why rules were such a feat.
The first rule was simple as could be: 'Listen up when you're addressed by me.' Bobby squirmed but tried his best, for he knew Ms. Star always knew best.
"Second! Always raise your hand to speak, don't be sneaky or too meek!" 'Raise my hand?' Bobby wondered. Would it clap like thunder?
The third rule rhymed and made them giggle: 'Share and care, don't cause a wriggle!' Bobby liked this rule the most, sharing made him feel like a welcoming host.
"Fourth! Use kind words like 'please' and 'thank you', they glitter like stars, ever so true!" Bobby thought kind words were neat, like magic sprinkled on a treat.
The last rule was loud and clear: 'Keep your desk tidy, my dear!' Bobby loved his desk neat, it made learning quite a treat.
Bobby stood tall and brave, 'These rules I shall not waive!' Ms. Star clapped and the class did too, Bobby felt proud through and through.
As the days turned into weeks, Bobby followed rules with simple tweaks. Raising his hand high, listening with care, sharing smiles everywhere.
Ms. Star gave a bright gold star, 'Bobby, you've come so far!' Bobby's heart lit up with glee, he learned to be the best he could be.
Now Bobby's friends would always say, 'Following rules makes a brighter day!' With Bobby leading by example true, every child knew what to do.
So remember young reader, with a heart full of zest, follow the rules and you'll be your best! Just like Bobby, in that cheerful place, you'll always have a smile on your face.
