Wondering: the Judgement hour

The time of judgment has come

With all the preparation

And the hard work done.

Eyes wide open—fear and thrill,

Some feel anxious, some feel chill.

Some are sad, and others having fun.

Too many thoughts for examination.

The time of result has now come.

Students with fear in their hearts.

Parents waiting with cake and bun.

The time of judgment has come.

The time of judgment has come.
