The On Off Switch

The on off switch, 
everyone wonders which to press,
to flip it up, click it off,
turn it back on, start a new cycle,
of life on the run. 
A new power, a brand new day. 
electricity, setting a world in motion, 
with a click of a button, a flip of a switch,
an on off pattern, awake and sleep,
lifes cycle, till the batteries drain,
recharge, and restart. 
all over again.
