The End of Time Tonight

Tonight we turn back time The end of Daylight savings time A chore for me I have over 30 clocks As a clock-maker, not A fake owner of one or two I dread two times a year Forward or backward Make up your mind This takes to much time I never understood this rule I like time the way it is Time never changes So, why do we have to change it? (A clock I am working on for a friend the skull moves back and forth)

From the title, I was expecting to read something based on what the late Ray Bradbury once wrote. I now see that is not the case. Nevertheless, I see that it is a good write.

So true my friend. Perhaps you could half the clocks on one side of the house, and half on the other. A time zone...? Or different times, all over the world with tiny signs... What time is it in London? Japan? Hawaii? hehe... Great poem. Ann
