The Hands of Time
By Franklin Price
5/28/2016
The hands of time are turning
On a clock that's analog
The rooster's crowing morning
And he's waking up the dog
The dog is barking crazily
At something that he hears
The Sun on the horizon
Makes the clouds of day appear
The numbers on the digital
Alarm change one by one
Moving there sequentially
They never will be done
The seconds zoom the minutes pass
The hours cruise on by
There is no way of stopping them
No matter how you try
When the alarm awakens you
Get out of bed and dance
Enjoy your time with others
But don't forget your pants
Go through the day as if you own it
When the night falls sing a tune
To go to bed a little happier
Try howling at the moon
