Spring Forward...Fall Back

Daylight Savings Time
by Phyllis McGinley
In Spring when maple buds are red,
We turn the Clock an hour ahead;
Which means, each April that arrives,
We lose an hour Out of our lives.

Who cares?

When Autumn birds in flocks

Fly southward, back we turn the Clocks,

And so regain a lovely thing--

That missing hour We lost last Spring.


Don't forget...turn your "back" an hour before you go nighty-night.
And...it's also time to change the batteries in your smoke detectors.
I think ours is workin' just fine.
When I opened the bathroom door yesterday morning...just the steam from my shower set ours off!!!

Blessings,
