Last Minute
I had a poetry assignment in English that was due that day. 15 poems, the whole thing worth 250 points. I hadn't worked on it at home, so I was using my first hour(which is a free period) to get it done.Forty desks lined up in rows
All empty except one
She writes furiously, thinking
'Maybe I'll get done'
Listening to her music
Hair falling out of place
She doesn't notice, too busy writing
With that seriousness on her face
Gotta finsih, gotta finish
Or I'll fail that class for sure
Mom will yell, I will sigh
"There goes my future"
Hastily she writes all down
Hurrying to get done
With homework she didn't do at home
Before the bell has rung
Did you like this poem? Write one of your own!
