Full of fun and frivolity this serves you well in your poem about losing the hour in daylight saving. Yes, the daylight saving is so kids will stop their whining and go to bed. Who wants to go to bed when the sun is shining?
I like your funny poem.

Comment from Mintybee
This was a funny look at how time works objectively, and subjectively. The play-on words about springing ahead and falling back worked nicely. The repetition of "Don't laugh" in a humour poem set a tongue-in-cheek tone. The rhyme scheme and rhythm worked nicely. I think we all need reasons to laugh when we lose an hour of sleep, so thanks for that!

Comment from June Sargent
I agree with you a hundred percent. I'm too old to deal with all these changes! But if we must, then so be it. It will make spring come faster - even if I'm not moving fasterš?¤£...

I think this poem is delightful. I have the same feelings as you do, especially as I grow older. I wish this time change didn't exist, and it just stayed light late. Thanks for sharing, good luck in the contest.

Thank you for sharing this timely birth as we turn the clocks ahead tonight. It takes a while to get used to it, but it will be nice to have longer evenings. Nice picture you have chosen.

Comment from Shirley E Kennedy
'Aah yes, Daylight Savings time!'
Sometimes, it seems to me that even the clocks become confused.
I know mine have revolted as not one keeps the right time-not even the mobile phones.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this confusing practise.
Blessings

I enjoyed reading the humor of your rhyming poem because it resonates with the way I feel. Oh how the hours would drag when I was young and at work. Now that I'm retired, days, weeks, months, and years fly by. I'm with you. I want time to slow down. Great poem and message. Best wishes in the contest.

OMG. Is it that time again. I just got used to time the way it is supposed to be, now you tell me I have to readjust once again. What the heck man, Why can't we just find a time we like universally and stick with it, for better or worse. I like daylight as much as the next guy, but when it is dark outside, I start to think about going to bed, and when it is light outside, I think about getting out of bed. It is just that simple. Isn't it?

Hey, I'm a Los Angeles man. For me it is West coast or die. No more snow or ice unless it is in my drink..

I like this very much, far better for sure, than I like to keep changing from and to daylight savings time! I especially like your repetition and your rhyme. I hope it does well in the contest.
