"Rushing to Get Good Grades"

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.

  1. I enjoyed reading your poem. It shows that if you do put your hard work in you can achieve your goal. Remember always keep that in mind and you will succeed. Nice job! (:
