Happy,
Sitting on the relaxing throne of my age,
Reminiscing what I went through in life.
A mere spectator I have now become,

Onerous task confronted teachers and parents

As prospective students
ably ready themselves to matriculate
and/or first set little feet

Which hunter (biden his time)

while athwart oblate spheroid
