In my area we are due to set our clocks back one hour. Brought out this oldie for that occasion.

My Wondrous Sunshine Catching Machine Gobbles rays of bright sunlight Diskombobblebooblelates them Just to use in darkest night I am feeling pretty dumb Eastern Standard Time has come And it came as quite a shock That I forgot to set my clock I was always running late But my machine would set me straight I grabbed a bit of morning light To dab it on the start of night I tried to switch about one hour But suddenly my plan went sour It seems the switch was stuck on high Now brightness fills the midnight sky Bats now fly at 6 AM Light of night is blinding them Daylight dims as nightime passes Owls are wearing dark sunglasses Sunrise starts my evening prayers I am having daynightmares Dinner is a midnight snack I'm now a nyctrophobiac Coyotes howl at morning sun What horrid change have I begun No harm was meant to man or beast But now my problems have increased My machine has me outsmarted I need to stop what I have started My plan will have to wait til night So there will be sufficient light To flip the switch and make the climb Out of Daylightsavings Time

I love it, again your writing always brings a smile to my lips. I love it when we can find humor in this crazy mixed up world where we have so many rules to follow...rules that creates kaos such as Eastern Standard Time, day light savings time, and so on...keep up the great work I enjoy reading it very much.
Blessings,

What a delightful play on words throughout this precious poem. I've been a fan of your work for years, and you still manage to surprise me with new insights into my funnybone! My day has now begun, I've had my funny Rusty-ism.
Love,
