T'was Agile

Christmas-night

   

Twas the night before release and all through the land
Not a person was working, not even one hand

The code was all tested and checked in with care
Even the documentation was completed and there

The PMO Director & VP of Dev were nestled all warm and snug in their beds.
While visions of bonuses danced in their heads

Joe closed his laptop and Sue hit the sack
Knowing morning was near and they needed the nap

When from my pants pocket there arose such a clatter
I grabbed my I-Phone to see what was the matter

Off to the office I flew like a Senior VP
Tore open my briefcase and fired up the PC

When what in my unsettling mind might appear
But an incomplete test case as I trembled in fear

I regained my senses and checked out the code
Reviewed the regression and distributed the load

It passed all the tests now my mind was at ease
Knowing that many would certainly be pleased

That I put forth such effort on a cold chilly night
To re-synch our build and ensure all was right

Soon morning approached and I knew not to worry
As none of the product was crammed in a hurry

It makes my heart filled with holiday cheer
To know Agile Methods make everything clear

I logged out of VersionOne feeling all was now right
Happy Holidays to all and to all a good night!
