A final overview

If in doubt, you should always go for number three,
As no other number of concentric circles you will ever see.
As Burton and Speke made their way to the hidden source
We discovered Bhutan in the early stages of the course.
You may tell incredible stories until you have a sore throat
But you won't be remembered for that if you've fucked a goat.
Unbelievable as it may seem I swear it is truth,
Not until maturity did we learn how to read a book.
November brought paradigms, what an intriguing word!
In no fewer than five ways it will make your mind work.
We took advantage of the Thai chi class to relax
After blog entries, phrasal verbs, and all that stuff.
Mandela would have rewarded us with a radiant beam
For having spent the whole Christmas reading about him.
When dealing with the law we came across Atticus Finch,
Feared by ruthless racists for never yielding an inch.
The poet, the job hunter, the chef, we played them all
And we were even encouraged to support an NGO.
Had Philip the Second attended the C1,
His brain would have developed new ruts.
Neuroplasticity would have helped to avert
Our greatest failure, the triumph of Good Queen Beth.
To end with, there's one last thing I wouldn't like to omit,
Which is the passion and devotion that you transmit.

Thank you.
