Subject: It was the night before the Bagrut Exam.....
THE BAGRUT EXAM
by Phyllis Oded
It was the night before the ENGLISH BAGRUT EXAM and all through the nation
not a 12th. grader was studying or waiting for a revelation.
Yet I lay awake, tossing and turning in my bed
with visions of ‘petrazillia’ running through my head.
Inversions, relative clauses and connectors were just a few
of these types of ‘structures’ I still wanted to review.
How to write a letter, with the date on the right;
how to do an unseen; how to spell ‘hieght’ [?] height.
First brainstorm in a composition and revise only when you’re through.
Will it all be remembered, or will a blackout ensue?
When I finally fell asleep, it was early morning at best.
Excited, but nervous, I arrived for the test.
“English is a piece of cake!” I overheard it said by one.
“Too many calories!” answered another, in fun.
The pupils greeted me with smiles and I relaxed too.
“Why are YOU so nervous, then?” you ask me.
I’m their TEACHER, that’s who!!
