Sense Sonnet - Steamer

By the Book

On my way to school on the bus,
The driver collapsed suddenly,
Falling over in front of us,
Knocked unconcious, it looked to me.
The bus was veering down the street,
Headed for some cars in the way.
Scrambling into the driver's seat,
I hit the brakes hard, come what may.
At last the bus came to a stop.
The driver just had a sore head.
I was a hero said a cop.
I was late, my principal said.

And because I was late to school,
I got detention - that's the rule!
