Best Daylight Saving Poems

November is here, all the clocks are set back.
Fewer daylight hours urge birds to pack.
Who guides them over the seas?
Perhaps a mild breeze
aids their flight.
Night
or daylight
they somehow find way
to their nice, warm holiday.
Does He help those little birds keep track?
November is here, all the clocks...

Yesterday, playful children engaged with the outside    
Endlessly enjoying their midsummer day's ride    

Today, another car collision, stuck in traffic  
Overwhelm by the society’s demographics  

Tomorrow, weary and mangled from overworking  
Needing assistance my aching legs...

No why would I want 
To be mis-behaving when
Light should be saving.

Along with more time
to be writing poems with.

Glare unexpected. 
Ninety degree traffic.
Swoon unforgivable sin....

Welcome Back Daylight Saving Time

By Elton Camp

Not very many would ever guess
End of “saving” there isn’t an “s”
We can’t keep the name straight,
But the idea is one that’s so great

Some will think that I am just wrong,
I want daylight saving all year long
I don’t like...

Daylight Saving Time

They had their reasons
an energy savings perhaps
or daylight appearance shift
an improvement of time..
But alas a darker view
has veiled the daylight..
Strokes and depression
shade our manipulations..
And perhaps more:
time stands revealed
as a thought impermanent
arriving and departing
veiling our lives
with its seeming
independence......

March 10, 2019 - Daylight Saving Time Starts

The homey nimble storied wisdom of
Benjamin Franklin still
admired during hour time,
especially noteworthy, for slime
molds, the second Sunday of March,
when theft linkedin with

(Ides say) most innocuous crime
re: stealth of precious sixty minutes, hence
a flash in the pan idea to...

Now wait a minute, did we save a day or an hour
It's Daylight Saving Time we can still smell the flowers
Yet it's still confusing
Is it summer or spring
Going to my psych, will we see snow or a shower...

The clock is turning forward next week,
as if a man-made rule inaugurates Spring,
or a change in behavior influences nature,
like a bird feeder that makes a warbler sing.

“Spring is in the air,” says my friend
as she sloshes through wet slush and snow
on a gray and windy...

Tonight we’ll lose an hour
But what I would like to know
Is where, exactly, do those minutes
Actually go?

They vanish like a finger snap
Magicians like to use
And just which minutes disappear
We do not get to choose.

At 2 a.m. we move the clocks
And suddenly, it’s 3.
Most people will...

So short the days,
so long to burn the fog
that masks the fading
muted reflections.
Orange red and yellow
meld to a soft amber that
drifts and falls slowly mellow.
November morning,
crisp dawning crushed
like the frost tipped blades -
rushed like the years final days
and the colors now gone.
I watch and recall,
once...

DST screws us up, makes us surly
A custom from the past, makes us late or early
Should be abandoned
The eagle has landed
Time to move on, it's no longer majority...

Daylight saving time

Engraçado esse horário!
A gente fica dormente
e até o galo endoidece!!!

Engraçado esse horário!
"Primavera a frente,
Outono pra trás" 

Passa a noite e vem o dia
E nem a crente tem fé.

Contam as horas cedo, 
no meio da primavera
e conta mais tarde
depois do verão terminar.

Roubada hora!
Adentra o...

Different peoples infest.

Aimless swoops pluck.

Yellow swoops prowl.

Local societies loll.

Industrialized societies sally forth.

Grand impieties affront.

Horrid impieties affront don't wanna get up NOW!.

Terrestrial planets star earths closer to the sun.





Societies loiter wasting away at night.

All souls devour must get up earlier.

Violent westerner's gobble days just begun.

Industrialized societies...

Off fish hill Daylight saving time 2025

min(no) newt effect on me.

As part and parcel of terpsichorean repertoire,
one whirling dervish 
flaps his wings at the speed of sound.

With twenty three hours
Sunday March 9th, 2025
essentially 2:00:00 to 2:59:59 
does not exist 
in the night of the switch
