Pat,
Consider for a moment the great state of Indiana where your poem should be part of the State Motto:
The Dawning of DST in Indiana

Until April 2005, when Indiana passed a law agreeing to observe daylight saving time, the Hoosier state had its own unique and complex time system. Not only is the state split between two time zones, but until recently, only some parts of the state observed daylight saving time while the majority did not.
Under the old system, 77 of the state's 92 counties were in the Eastern Time Zone but did not change to daylight time in April. Instead they remained on standard time all year. That is, except for two counties near Cincinnati, Ohio, and Louisville, Ky., which did use daylight time.
But the counties in the northwest corner of the state (near Chicago) and the southwestern tip (near Evansville), which are in the Central Time Zone, used both standard and daylight time.
The battle between the old system and DST was contentious and hard-won—bills proposing DST had failed more than two dozen times until finally squeaking through the state legislature in April 2005. As of April 2, 2006, the entire state of Indiana joined 47 other states in observing Daylight Saving Time. But it wasn't quite as simple and straightforward as all that—telling time in Indiana remains something of a bewildering experience: eighteen counties now observed Central Daylight Time and the remaining 74 counties of Indiana observe Eastern Daylight Time.

I really enjoyed the poem ..I don't like the time change either , but its part of life and one can't fight city hall....M

I truly admire your creative, originality.

You must not live in Arizona -
Where clocks stay the same,
Instead of playing the game.

Dayligght savings time....to be or not to be....Just when we get used to it someone pulls theb rugn out from under us...

I appreciate this wry humor that has a lot of meaning to back it, Patrick. Thank you. Love and peace to you,

Adjustments, adjustments.....it does take a while. At least it makes for good poem fodder.
Speaking of adjustments, happy birthday, Saint Patrick!

It is tuff to adjust our body clock. I do like a little more sun in the late afternoon! Very cute poem! Happy St. Pats my friend. :) Hope you having some good green beer! :)

Hilarious! We're all feeling your pain, Patrick...but I bet I can one-up your dilima.....back in Newfoundland around seventeen years ago, some brilliant politician had an idea to change the clocks by TWO hours instead of one.....needless to say they only did that once! It was impossible to adjust! giggle....

Mow my coffee maker starts at 5:15 (as set) instead of 4:15 and the clock in my car will be right for the next six months.
Funny poem my friend.
