I tried to tell her. I did! Did she listen? No, she didn’t bother. It was test upon test. You can’t pass something You haven’t learned However hard you’re trying. But I gave it my best. It was today that she Finally graded that those tests. Her look a degree Colder than cold. “This is very, very bad,” Said she, and I agreed. I couldn’t tell if she was sad or mad, But she showed me my mark. Fifty three out of fifty five. “At least I got two,” I thought. No matter how you strive, You can’t know what you don’t know.   I tried to tell her so.
