Rhyme Time
Exam stress

What a fearful day, the exam is

More fearful is to wait is.

Books and books in our mind

Sleep and rest we can’t find

Teachers and Principal scold us

Parents blindly trust us

To whom shall we speak to

No time even to buckle a shoe

No time to play no time to dream

We are in a bookland it seem

They say books are your best friends

Rightly, as we have to read it seven days every weekend

Mathematics to solve, chemistry to cram

We just want to be back in our pram

An apple a day keeps the doctor away

Even an hour’s sleep keeps our aim away

Pen and paper are our daily meal

Studies and childhood a bad deal

Shall we ever get time to enjoy

Or will we become a book boy

If we ignore our exams we will be right at the back

So, let us bind the ignorance in a sack

We’ll be at the top then

Still, there will be no time to even count a ten

Till then, let’s hope and pray to Pope that decrease our burden

Before we are caught and wrapped in study’s rope
