"Camp is coming!”



We have so little time, til the last day,
So let me rest in my warm comfy bed.
I must do my finals, all for today,
We’ll need to work hard, is what Bender said.

With only weeks left, I can see the light,
That shines bright at the end of the tunnel.
There is so much to do, working at night,
I must filter all this like a funnel.

I am already slacking, falling back,
So please go easy so I can relax.
Too much to handle, I must get on track,
Because I must memorize all these facts.

It’s about to end a time so well spent,
Where my year spent in school just came and went.
