The end of the marking period is coming.
All this work is getting numbing.
I was panicking about my grades.
I am so done with these charades.
It was time for me to buckle down and pick up the slack,
Because I did not want to be a sad sack.
I would not accept anything below a B.
And right now I am working with two C's.
I went to my teachers and asked what could be done.
This was not going to be fun.
I worked long and hard for many days.
I believe it deserved some praise.
And when the time came to see what I got,
It was just as I thought.
I got my grades up and everything was swell.
I did so well I wanted to yell.
