I'm Late For College

Oh no I'm late for college

The alarm woke me up late in the morn

Oh, how could this happen?

I'm sure I had set the alarm right, I could have sworn

I was supposed to wake up at seven

But now it's nearly eight

If I'm not on time my teacher will scold me

In a total hustle-bustle, I tried to pack my bag

Oh now, where are my Sanskrit books gone?

And then I also realized I

Had left my pen/pencil pouch near the table

Mom tried to stop me but I was too busy

To hear what she had to say

Without breakfast, I ran to the metro station

Whilst the sun on me, cast it's many a bright Ray

I stood there waiting for the metro train

But it didn't arrive at all

Uh oh, was I too late?

At last, I gave up hope

And came home to rest for the day

When my eyes fell on the calendar

And I realized today is a Sunday.
