Hey Karla, that's clever. Can be interpreted on several levels. For instance, a pregnant woman finally giving birth...dropping her load, as it were! She would feel relief, right? Well done! :)
Sooo well done, Karla. Says it all visually as well as syllabically. As Victor says, sounds like an exhausted mother putting her feet up with a well-earned cup of tea for 5 minutes peace and quiet. Conjures much with a few well-placed words. TY K xx

With all the children jumping up and down, no wonder the bus need relief. Must have been painful. Victor

Must have read Ed's sitting on the bog one first, then these metaphors..
LOL, this piece has a lot of significance, Karla. My husband is retired from an Engineering career and drives a school bus! I'll have to print this out for him. The relief belongs to the driver, not the bus, rest assured! Excellent poem!
Love,

This could very well be an advertisement for a laxitive. Sometimes, I imagine, that full bus can feel like being constipated.
Goodun ...
