\u2018Twas the night before trials, and all the Hodge boys<\/p>\n

Were working their socks off, without any noise<\/p>\n

Their notes were all printed, their essays prepared<\/p>\n

In last minute study, no effort was spared<\/p>\n

\nPrep flew like an arrow, as never before<\/p>\n

And soon it was over, some studied no more<\/p>\n

They grabbed biscuits and milo, and shared knowing looks<\/p>\n

And before you could blink they were back at their books<\/p>\n

The last minute cramming went into the night<\/p>\n

And the Hodges boys all raged at the dying of light<\/p>\n

But no matter that quotes yet remained to be learned<\/p>\n

Every one was eventually forced to adjourn<\/p>\n

As they headed to bed, their heads filled full of facts<\/p>\n

They stood up from their beds and lay down on their backs<\/p>\n

Some began to despair at the knowledge they lacked,<\/p>\n

While others slept peaceful, their courage intact.<\/p>\n

But I hope they remember, these young men of ours<\/p>\n

That whate\u2019er may happen, they\u2019re all superstars<\/p>\n

And while papers tomorrow may bring naught but strife<\/p>\n

Good luck to them all, and a happy #hodglyfe<\/p>\n
