Poem

Eight o’clock, Eight o’clock – Children, arise.
Out in the yard you can chase butterflies!

Nine o’clock, Nine o’clock – Children don’t dawdle!
You move like a duck who can’t even waddle.

Ten o’clock, Ten o’clock – Children it’s late!
Really, I haven’t all morning to wait.

Eleven o’clock – Kids, you have to get going.
Your kites I’ve got ready. A nice breeze is blowing.

Twelve o’clock, Twelve o’clock – Children, move fast.
Already you see the morning has passed.

One o’clock, One o’clock – Lunch we are eating.
Suggestions I made do not bear repeating.

Two o’clock, Two o’clock – Now you feel full?
Your little red wagon I’d promised to pull!

Three o’clock, Three o’clock – I said ASAP.
It looks like instead you are needing a nap!

Four o’clock, Four o’clock – STILL you’re inside?
To get you in sunshine I’ve tried and I’ve tried.

Five o’clock, Five o’clock – Dad’s almost home.
Why in the wonderful woods won’t you roam?

Six o’clock, Six o’clock – Soon will be dinner.
Each of you seems like a stay-inside winner.

Seven o’clock, and the sun has gone down.
Kids, can’t you see that your mom wears a frown?

Eight o’clock, eight o’clock – all that I needed
was time for myself. My words went unheeded.

Nine o’clock, nine o’clock – Time now for bed.
That story you wanted is not getting read!
