"Hassle of Homecoming"

So much work it is preparing for a dance
As student council members, this was our chance
To show everyone that we could succeed
This dance would be spectacular and worth it, indeed!

One aspect that would make this dance so great
Was the wonderful food we would put on the plates
We asked for donations and paid for some food
What helped us so much was our hopeful attitude

Booking a DJ would prove to be tricky
But with our sources it happened so quickly
Our advisor found a guy who we reserved for the day
It was a relief to have that part out of the way

We bought decorations to fit our fall theme
We couldn't get over how cute our theme seemed
It was coming together, the dance would be a blast
It would surely create memories that would last

Homecoming is truly the dance of the year
We felt that to the students, this just wasn't clear
A lack of enthusiasm at first brought us down
Little did we know how the ticket sales would bound!

The night of the dance was finally here
We anticipated 7, when the guests would appear
Everyone danced, and they had a ball
But soon enough, we had no food at all

When it was all over, we were so drained
After all of our toil, our effort and pain
Although it wasn't perfect, we knew not to sob
Regardless, we agreed that we'd done a good job

  2. I'm so happy everything worked out good for homecoming! It was definitely one stressful week! I also wrote my poem about homecoming and the difficulties it entailed.
