Couplet Challenge: Alarm Clock

I hear the bells that ring and hurt my head And know it’s time to drag myself from bed.

Those horrible alarm clocks..A radio set to your favorite music is the best way to be awaken..Enjoyed reading your creative work this afternoon..If this one is for a contest, good luck..Reads like winning material..I have seen several of single couplets so it must be a contest..Thanks for stopping by, reading and commenting on my work..Sara

And about the Halloween trickster lady. You can be sure what she found on her doorstep WAS due to what she did Halloween night!
