04 Feb ‘Twas The Night Before TEDx

‘Twas the night before TEDx and all through the school

Students decorated the halls to make it look cool.

The posters were hung on the walls with care

In hopes that the delegates soon would be there

Oh, how they wished to be snug in their beds,

For the crash of all-nighters began rising in their heads.

As the leads and directors wanted to slump and sleep

The associates worked on like a tight knit fleet.

When out in the hall, there arose such a smell

Melted cheese and dough, it was PIZZA! Can’t you tell?

Away, out the meeting place, they flew like a flash

To meet the pizza man, in his lovely pizza sash.

They ate with such joy, and smiles on their faces

Knowing they had been saved by the Pizza God’s graces.

They feasted and frolicked until their stomachs were full

And rested their feet for as long as they could.

Then they worked, and they worked, all through the night

With no brightness at all, except the dim moon light

As the hours ticked on, and the sun seemed to rise

TEDx members had tears in their eyes.

Not of sadness, but of joy, for the day had come

Where ideas would be spread for everyone.

More rapid than eagles TEDx delegates came

When Daniela, the chair, called everyone by name:

“Now Talha, now Reema, now Andrei and Chantel

On Bushra, on Tanvi, Mobeen and Gabrielle!”

But this day of ideas would not come so easy

When the night before they all felt a bit queasy.

As they worked together, and put in all their strengths

No feat seemed too large, too hard or at length

For this was the night before TEDx, and it would not be possible

Because everyone’s heart and hard work was unstoppable.

This endless night of teamwork and pizza galore

Felt like nothing at all, we even craved more.

And in the end the lesson we learned is,

No work was too hard for TEDxUTSC: Ellipses.
