Notes About The Poem
Did you forget to Fall back with your clock?
Two Am
Two A.M.

'Twas two A.M. this very day,
This Sunday in November
Time gremlins took an hour away
Was asleep and don't remember
They snuck in very quietly
These part time thieving gnomes
They were not very greedy
Just took an hour from our homes
Made a deposit, in the bank,
Of Daylight Savings Time,
When they return it to us, in the Spring,
We'll forgive this petty crime
If for some strange reason,
You were left out on this day
Save the hour in your mattress
They pay no interest anyway
If you're in Arizona
You've just read a useless rhyme
You're in a State that doesn't honor
Any Daylight Savings Time
Although, I hear the Navajo,
Who live on native land,
Honor Daylight Savings Time
I, for one, don't understand
