Melbourne University
A poem by Paul Pizzolo

Melbourne University

Full of eager minds
Testing their ability
Studying every journal
All different in complexity.

South lawn their getaway
The library is their home
Karaoke would be fun
Singing into a microphone.

But uni is so competitive
To win the war and battle.
I wish it was a farm
So I can round up the cattle.

I am from the bush
But Melbourne Uni offers a chance
A chance to work in a firm
Which I can only wish to advance.

Journals contain information
Brains absorb it most
Finishing a degree,
An achievement you can boast.

The dictionary is a friend
The thesaurus widely used.
When exams come along
Cheating is abused!

But survival is the key
And studying is a must.
Engross yourself in a book
And clear away the rust.
