Torn thee from torn leaf
A long one – not brief
Unlike the first five
This one’s not alive
Don’t know its name too

Décor by first year
On table to cheer
By someone from them
For only one name
BSEd One, lo!

First day of Mid-Term
Their very first sem
Eighteenth of August
While I am their host
For Ma’am Jul’s exam

As said – on table
On vase – with bundle
With flowers – other
Surround them – cluster
It’s one of six leaves

Felt I bit boring
For students taking
Exam not over
I noticed flower
Pre-lunch time stupor.
