Changing the Clocks
Certain clocks obeyed
By springing forward on their own –
The ones on the computer
Or the TV or the phone.
But my old-fashioned watch
Required a turning of the stem
And clocks around the house
Needed assistance changing them.
Our Subaru was trickiest
Though after several tries
The dashboard showed the time
On which our traveling relies.
We’re all caught up now for a while
Until the next date when
It’s time to fall behind and then
We’ll do it all again.
