Notes About The Poem

                   

- Alarm Clocks -

Keep up with the latest news
Smart watches do more than just tell you the time
From ancient times we had clocks that were more environmentally friendly
Roosters were natural alarm clocks

It's the rooster that crows, but it's the chickens that lay the eggs
Personally I think it is time for a women's liberation
Up before the rooster crows ?
Thank you for long and faithful service ... the smell of fresh coffee
