Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Leave On Time, Never Be Late

To stop being late for your next appointment,
set your clock 10 minutes ahead of real time. 
Then, when at due time, you leave your apartment,
you will always arrive on time, to hear the bells chime.

Anisha Dutta July 29, 2021 at 5:10 AM John I have three wall clocks in Drawing cum Dining Hall, in Bed room And in Study. All the clocks are running 15 mins. ahead. I am more clever than you. I really enjoyed the 'Word-Play' Thanks. John Anderson July 29, 2021 at 10:34 AM Thanks, must be a challenge for daylight time saving! Cheers

Brandy Nicole July 27, 2021 at 9:16 PM Excellent advice. You will never be late if you set your clock ahead. Your thoughts bring a smile. :) Brandy John Anderson July 27, 2021 at 10:10 PM yes, it does. Cheers and Best Wishes. I'm Late, I'm Late, I'm very, very Late!

Marilene Evans July 26, 2021 at 8:18 PM Way to go, John. I guess I better sit for my Zoom class 10 minutes before it starts. LOL... John Anderson July 26, 2021 at 9:49 PM It can be quite annoying for friends who have watches set to the right time!
