A Twenty-Seven Hour Day

Wonder if I ask politely, the great powers that be To increase the day's hours by just two or three Not asking for much My heart would be touched Right now there's no time to stop for a pee © Jack Ellison 2015

Oh my! I look forward to my bed time... I'd hate to have to wait any longer to find it... With 27 hours and my luck... I'd probably fall asleep a couple hours earlier and miss a whole lot more!

Hey Jack, this is too cute. But I don't know, it sounds like you'll just fill up the extra hours with more things to do - and it's your bladder I feel sorry for! Well done. Be Blessed, Neva

You are most likely right my dear Neva! If I got my wish, I would probably negotiate for 3 more and 3 more then 3 more!!! Huggsies, Jack xxx
