The Tortoise and the Hare

I remember it was this day 21st of June I sauntered into a famous furniture mart. They have developed a hotel type room. They offer the customers a unique feel. With advance free booking for two hours To relax and test a mattress in a bed room, The room with facilities of TV and stereo. Even the customers are told to bring pajamas. As I snoozed for more than stipulated hours, I did loose to choose to snooze 300 dollars. Though I have read and taken a candid lesson From Aesop’s fable The Tortoise and the Hare. ================================ For the contest : You snooze you choose by Nikko Palmario I think I forgot to enter the poem in the contest.
