‘Twas the week before finals, when all through our apartment,
not a body was stirring, not even a smidge.
Our books are laid out with highlighters in hand,
as we furiously study for the tests that are planned.
My roommates are studying hard in their beds,
while visions of winter break dance in their heads.
With one week to go, we feel the rush,
realizing our brains will soon turn into mush.
Yet we study and write until it is two,
As our exams and papers will soon be due.
But we won’t lose hope as the end is in sight.
So Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
