                            ODE TO HOMEWORK
                   H is for homework, the bane of we two.
                   O is the ordeal that we both go through,
                   M lor our Maths, and mistakes that we make,
                   E stands for English, a subject that’s cake.
                   W the work that we grudgingly do,
                   O for the oddities of various hue.
                   R for the rules, though we never excel,
                   K for the Krisis we cause when we spell.
