Before the Exams: A scene of my room

Written long back but apt for the current situation. . . 

My English book lies in a corner dark
As I try hard to make a mark
In my Math paper, practicing hard
Perhaps being cursed by the long dead bards
Geography and Economics are engaged in serious talks
Of how they used to accompany me to walks
History and the Physics have struck up a friendship
They no longer care about the poor G.K’s gossips
Biology, as usual is loudly snoring
The world of dreams, it is busy exploring
Chemistry is trying hard to guess
The formula of the solutions, without making a mess
The quiet Hindi is smiling at everyone
And the noisy art file is trying to grab my attention
The political Science book is watching them all
Lost in thoughts of coping with the downfall
And the poor Math is digesting all the sums
At times I wonder how messy it becomes
That’s ‘before- the- exam’ scene of my room
It stays like that from morning to noon
Be it the ones chatting or the ones taking a nap
All have the same thoughts-
"I had once rested comfortably in her bag!"
